I had a blood test done last November and my calcium blood test came back 10.8. I guess the standard range is 8.4-10.6. I have had another follow up test but I do not know what the value is . I m going on Monday to a specialist in Ames for this. Is this something I should be very concerned with?
Hello, your levels are not that high and sometimes technical reasons may cause it. A repeat measurement is needed. Measuring the parathyroid hormone would be very helpful as well to estimate the risk for a parathyroid adenoid, which is a common cause of mild hyperkalemia. Also, have you been using anything that has an effect on calcium like supplements, Chat Doctor. I hope I've helped! If you'd like more information, please let me know. I'll be glad to answer. Kind Regards!
