Duga35, sorry to hear about your father suffering with parathyroid disease. I am curious as to why your father didn't need surgery. Did he not have a tumor on his parathyroid gland or glands, (there usually are four of them)? I don't understand the reasoning behind the magnesium treatment...could you explain?
