Connie's Surgery

Connie is in the recovery room right now. She had one parathyroid gland removed. Normal weight is 50mg- hers was 1950mg. Normal size is a grain of rice- hers was the tip of the thumb.

Before surgery her parathyroid hormone was 200- after surgery it was 38. Normal is 10 to 50. The surgeon thought the problem had be ongoing for 10+ years.

After recovery we should all be back in the hotel by mid-afternoon. She will have to go in to the clinic in the morning then and then we'll be heading East!
