What Does It Mean By Elevated Calcium Level In Blood And Urine?
I am 46 years old, 5'1 and 149 lbs. I have hyperthroidism. I saw my md yesterday due to severe neck and backache. My md told me that I have myofascial pain. He ordered a series of blood and urine tests. His nurse called me and told me that my calcium level was elevated in blood and urine and to go to lab for more urine and blood tests. What does this mean?
