Hello,
The side effects of lisinopril may be related to potassium levels making possible high potassium levels. I don't think it affects calcium levels. Further evaluation is needed like other chemicals in blood and thyroiditis - parathyroid ultrasound or adrenal gland ultrasound.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
