Ferritin and iron are “normal”

Is this truly a “norm”?!?!

Edit: sorry, should have added more info.

32 year old female- got my labs done recently. All other labs are within normal limits besides my calcium that is slightly elevated although unrelated.

Symptoms: fatigue, dry, itchy skin of the face, brittle nails, thinning hair, moodiness, depression.

Undergoing additional testing for parathyroid disease, POTS, and was diagnosed with hashimotos.

I am just at a loss. I feel like I have so many things going on but no answers. I know the way I feel is NOT normal. My energy levels are almost non existent and I have horrendous anxiety to top it all off. 😣

Possible Hyperparathyroidism

Hi! New to this group. 32 y/o female. Years of symptoms.

In 2022- TPO’s were elevated. All other thyroid labs “WNL”. No CBC done.

In 2024- calcium was 10.1, all other labs “WNL”. Thyroid labs “WNL” TPO’s NOT checked.

Fast forward to 2026- Got my labs done a week ago.

Calcium 10.3, TPO’s elevated, ferritin 18 (unrelated I know but worth mentioning bc of my symptoms) All other labs “WNL.” Waiting on my PTH labs, getting those done Monday.

Clearly I have something going on. I’m exhausted, some bone pain here and there, dry, itchy skin on my face, brittle nails, thinning hair, trouble losing weight, moodiness, anxiety, depression, gut issues, lightheadedness, SOB.

My cardio dx me with possible hypothyroidism vs hashimotos vs Graves’ disease and possible POTS/Dysautonomia. Running more tests. But I did research and seems like hyperparathyroidism may be a possible dx. I ordered my own PTH labs and have an endo appt in August. In the meantime, I’m seeing my PCP on Friday and going to ask her for an US of my thyroid. I’m just ready to get some answers.

Any input, tips, anything would help. 😭
