Calcium & absorption
| Mon, 10-25-2004 - 4:49pm |
Hi:
I did get my recent labs back and they said that my "calcium is slightly high"... but this time the PTH was low-normal. Which is odd because 6 weeks ago it was high. Anyway, my question is, if Calcium intake interferes with absorption of synthroid, does having high blood calcium interfere also?

Hi:
Thanks to you both for your responses! I'm very interested in how the Hashimotos and hyperparathyroid might interact... I've read they're not related, but I do wonder whether one will impact the other with symptoms, etc.
I'm still not sure if that's why the extra calcium is there, though... seems likely since the level was once high. I'll just have to wait and see what the endo. says.
Dee.
