Hi It is the corrected calcium that matters and must always be in range, an electrolyte and other well known reasons, stones etc.If you are on vit D you must lower it, retest calcium, if still over range then stop the D, no matter what. Also you need an am test for 3 things, must be like that, PTH ( parathyroid), calcium ( corrected) and vit D. If all high or 2 high and D high for you. Then, you need a nuclear scan and CT scan of the PTH and also a thyroid ultra sound.

Best wishes,

Hi hector, No GP`s are not aware either that 3 should be done together, my Endo told me, I had to insist. If they are high, PTH and corrected calcium still, I would insist on the correct test. It is the only way to know about the PTH.Any way. it is important tp makr sure that your D is , if calcium becomes normal as D is hormonal and effects the thyroid, it is not really a vit, just wrongly named!

Best wishes,

Jackie
