Parathyroidinm Or No

[Smokin Joe]

I recently found out that my calcium has been as high as 10.8.
After reviewing bloodwork history I have been anywhere from 10.0 to 10.8 with serum calcium.
Recent parathyroid hormone was 47.01. Range from 15 to 65.
I have been feeling pretty crappy for months and was getting ready to start back with TRT at 50mg per week which is what my doctor wants. Will hold off until I sort this out.
It appears that my parathyriods could be causing a little trouble but maybe early stage.
Any suggestions.

TRT at 50mg per week is a very low dose - one likely to leave you in a "Low T" state. What is your Doc's thought behind that, if he has shared it with you?

Check your thyroid since thyroid dysfunction can increase calcium.

ERO I don't have a clue why he starts at such a low dose.
You are right about being in a low state of T.
I am going to press him for 70 to 80mg weekly.

ERO, why would only 50mg per week be low as we only produce small amounts?
