View allMy blood calcium levels are high at 12.5 and urine tests also show excess calcium. The sestamibi scan points to the lower right lobe being affected. I'm worried about the surgery will it be done under general or local anesthesia? How long does the procedure usually take and what's the typical hospital stay? Also, which surgical method works best for this condition?
For high blood calcium caused by an overactive parathyroid gland, surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia, with the procedure taking around 1-2 hours, and a hospital stay of usually one night. Minimally invasive parathyroidectomy is the preferred surgical method for most cases.

I'm a bit confused about my blood glucose levels. My fasting sugar came out higher than my reading two hours after eating. It was 155 fasting and 139 after a meal. At one point, my fasting level was 200, and a few days later, it dropped to 155. Why would my fasting sugar be higher than after a meal? Is this something to worry about?
It is not uncommon for blood glucose levels to be higher in the morning (fasting) compared to after a meal. This is due to the dawn phenomenon, where hormones released in the early morning hours cause blood sugar levels to rise. Additionally, if you had a high-carbohydrate meal the night before, it can also contribute to higher fasting blood sugar levels. To help manage your blood sugar levels, you can consider taking Metformin. It helps to improve insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management.
