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.

[QUOTE="Smokin Joe, post: 24674, member: 487"] 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. [/QUOTE]
