Hi- I recently had some bloodwork done and not all the results are in yet (still waiting for gene test) so I haven't spoken to the doctor yet but my thyroid PTH was high. It was 66 with the normal range being 15-65. Anyone know what this means? Thanks so much, B

I think the PTH is referring to parathyroid glands. I'm not really familiar with those. Regular thyroid tests are TSH, T4 and T3. Did she test you for those?

hi Rachel- It is the parathyroids. All my other thyroid tests had come back normal. I was just reading something that said if the PTH is high it could be due to malabsorption (if it is combined with high calcium levels it could be hyperparathyroidism but my calcium levels were normal- 8.8 within a range of 8.4-10.2. Interessstting...... :blink:

Have you read www.parathyroid.com

I am being tested for this right now. I had a calcium test come back high. According to the parathyroid site it is NEVER normal to have a high calcium or high PTH. Even if the levels changes and comes down for one test.

Have you gotten your thyroid peroxidase antibodies checked? These show hashimotos hypothyroidism (autoimmune) and should be under 20. This was the only test that showed up abnormally for me. Very common in celiacs.

      Stomach hurts with movement

      By amantelchi · Posted

      I'd like to clarify: Is the pain you describe in the area just below your chest constant, or does it only appear when you start moving?

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
