Why would i have high parathyroid levels with a normal blood calcium level?

Early on: One explanation is that you might have a new onset parathyroid adenoma. It means that even though you have an adenoma it was caught before it caused significant increase in blood calcium levels.

VIT D: Vit d deficiency is the most common cause and it can take months of vit d supplements to restore levels to normal.

Depends on calcium: If the calcium is elevated or high normal and PTH is significantly elevated, primary hyperparathyroidism is most likely cause and would most likely be treated with surgery. If the calcium is low the most likely cause is vitamin d deficiency.
