PTH should be low: If you calcium (and ionized calcium) is high, your PTH should be suppressed to low levels unless you have a parathyroid adenoma secreting excess pth. Supplementing low vitamin d is important. Also make sure you are not on thiazide diuretics. Your endocrinologist can evaluate the cause and treatment. Don't ignore it.

High calcium: With the labs you report, regardless of the vitamin d, you likely have primary hyperparathyroidism. You could get a 24 hr urine calcium to be sure.
