A member asked:

My creatinine in the blood is normal. however, my ionized calcium is slightly low and my intact pth is slightly elevated. what's the cure?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

? Vit d diff: It is very hard to answer without Knowing the values of vit D and phosphate level. My Gauss is that it can be vit D diff or PTH resistant. Recommend you follow with endocrinologist. I hope this helps.
