More tired and forgetful than usual? Can’t seem to quench your thirst? Just feel kind of bad all over but don’t know why? Four tiny glands near your thyroid might be the culprit.

Parathyroid disease happens when those four pea-sized glands are working overtime making too much parathyroid hormone (PTH). Too much PTH tells your body to release more calcium, and then the troubles begin.

Cleveland Clinic treats all parathyroid diseases and the side effects. We’ll create a personalized treatment plan that aims to control symptoms and manage side effects.
