You can have hyperparathyroidism at any age. Mine was found at 15 and at 30 calcium levels haven't been high enough to justify surgery yet (but other tumors stemming from the same root cause have).

How much did you pay for surgury? It sounds like going to the US and paying out of pocket would be very cost prohibitive.

Paid 13200 USD (they don't publish the price on their web page any more, but I suppose it didn't change much). Supposedly their price is one of the lowest (and you get the best care).
