Guest guest Posted October 13, 2000 Report Share Posted October 13, 2000 Hi everyone, Just got off the phone with my Dad.He wanted me to ask the group a question.He believes that hypoparathyriod or any thyroid diease correlates with CMT.Why? Some of the symptoms are the same.(personally I don'y feel these two go hand in hand.But since I don't know everything thought I would ask.)My Dad had thyroid cancer 10 years ago and had thyroid and parathyroid removed.So, he has a lot of involuntary muscle spasms and with CMT he has a lot of voluntary muscle spasms.Since the thyroid controls calcium in the system and taking calcuim for both these spasms helps;He's under the immpression they " go " together.SO,let me know if you know anything about this.

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2000 Report Share Posted October 13, 2000 June: Lamar here, The thyroid produces thyroxin that is a main controller of metabolism rate. The parathyroids control several things one being calcium metabolism. A lack of parathyroid hormones can produce spasms and cramps. BUT it is an entirely different process than those caused by CMT. many things can cause similar symptoms. A stroke and a back injury can produce paralysis. The heart, indigestion, hiatus hernias, and anxiety can all produce chest pain. The problems with parathyroid deficiency are due to a lack of hormones, the trouble from CMT is due to nerve damage. I know of no correlation other than some similarity of symptoms. In everything I have read out hormones remain normal unless other things change them. Convincing him of this may be another matter. ----- Original Message ----- From: June Sinclair egroups Sent: Friday, October 13, 2000 03:02 PM Subject: [] hypoparathyroid diease Hi everyone, Just got off the phone with my Dad.He wanted me to ask the group a question.He believes that hypoparathyriod or any thyroid diease correlates with CMT.Why?
