Hypercal and weight: Hypercalcemia is not directly responsible for a problem loosing weight. The somatic (body) symptoms which accompany Hyperparathyroidism (the most common outpatient cause of hypercalcemia) can make weight loss a challenge due to skeletal and joint pain as well as brain fog, among other symptoms.
