Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to low levels of calcium in blood. You should get checked for calcium and vitamin D levels in blood. In case of low levels i suggest to take vitamin d3 and calcium supplements. Taking milk and milk products and exposing to sun also will be helpful. Hope this may help you.
Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
