Dear Diary: Wonderful Days Ahead as I Continue with My Parathyroid Treatment

It's about the third day that I am taking my medicine for my hyperactive parathyroid and soon it will going to mellow a bit a return unto its normal functioning. That will be my hope and I am in a strict diet now of a non-processed food or to lessen a bit of it at least so that I can control my phosphorus intake.

A high level of phosphorus makes my parathyroid act like a junkie on meth all the time, it goes crazy and spews a lot of its hormone in my system that it eventually weakened my ones and made me like this, appearance, pains, and all. But now it is now all coming to normality and soon will experience no or lesser pains and hopefully will stop the progression of my Leontiasis condition which is really my goal because facial reconstruction is expensive.

It is just a punch on the moon to have a facial reconstruction as I have a lot of comorbidities which means I have other serious condition which prevents such ultra-invasive procedure. If I had the money I will tell the doctor, "Let's pretend that I had a face motorcycle accident and it ruined half of my face and that you have to fix it all u again, here's the money." Sometimes it is just all about the money and they can all do it anyway, all are possible with money, at least many things are.


It's my good medicine. Good medicine is all I need

I haven't gotten to post last night because I got a delay going home from dialysis as my blood pressure went down. But I am really feeling okay, it's just my nurses won't let me go and I have to wait more than an hour to wait for my blood pressure to rise up some more so I can finally go home and it made me felt uneasy as I have to contend with the uncomfortable positions in the lazyboy chair, it all gave me body pains.

When I got home I was so not feeling well but it is what I want as it means I had a good cleansing action from dialysis. I had some muscle cramps on my hands mainly and overall muscle twitchings. I had to go to try to sleep because I cannot do anything anymore.

Soon I will be okay and enjoy my strength and gain my body weight back. I am so happy that the #steemit community, the hand of God for me is supporting me. There are many kind-hearted people here who understands my condition and I am so thankful and grateful that you will all transform my life and wipe away my tears which once flowed like a river from my eyes. God help me and God bless the steemit community.

God Bless you to Cryptopie. I told my wife about you getting your medicine. She is also very happy for you that you might begin to get some relief from your pain. She has a debilitating back problem that only a pain block can take care of but even that does not work most of the time.

Only someone like her in chronic pain can truly sympathize with your pain but even hers is isolated to her lower back. Neither of us can imagine the whole body pain you must endure every day.

You are actually an inspiration to the Steemit community that has had the privilege to find you on here. I get up thinking each day, "I'm lucky to be on this side of the dirt." But lately I wake up thinking today is going to be a great day because If @cryptopie can conquer each day I can too. My problems don't fill a thimble when I compare what myself and my wife deal with to your daily struggles.

God bless you.
Tell your Mother and Father that like you we have great admiration for you all.
Your struggle and your ability to share with us is indeed a gift.
You are our gift.
I hope you feel better faster.... and good luck with the motorcycle story. You never know..... the doctor might take you up on it
I am Keeping you in my prayers..
#MuchLove #MuchRespect

May God help you to recover soon. I praise your effort to recover yourself. May God bless you.

:) Thank you for all your kind words and encouragement @libertyranger
You know I often pray to God just to give me a little more air and a little more strength and I can do it despite all my joints including those of the ribs are really making my life miserable and it is as hard as it can get that I am always pinned to my bed just to escape moving my joints which will just trigger them all.
It is my privilege that the steemit community gives me my needed support so I can finally stop or at least slow the progression of my Leontiasis which scares me. I am also hopeful that the pains will also stop and the joints will soon recover. Meanwhile I am using gabapentin as it als helps some of thee pains that I am experiencing.

Give steemit the credits. Give the people studying medicine or creating and transporting it the credits. Give your mom or yourself the credits. Not your imagination friend. Who if would exist is the one that did this to you.

Just my 2 cents.

I can't wait for you to recover cryptopie and we see a happier crypto pie chillen on the beach/somewhere awesome! Road there is long but you're strong af!

I only had been on the beach 2 times @chrone
Maybe I can visit some beach somewhere soon, I would love that but right now I am just concentrating on how to get to the bathroom without much moaning and groaning with pain.

I was reading up on Cinacalet and Muscle cramps is one of the side effects. Make sure to keep yourself well hydrated and take the Cinacalet with a Meal.

Yes Thank you for the kind advice @woodywood143
That medicine has a distinct strong smell and a burning taste too.

May God will do a miracle in your life @cryptopie... I'm believing with you. God bless!
