A member asked:
My mother was diagnosed with high calcium and had iv treatment over several days. now she's on a diuretic and feels jittery. why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
? Low calcium: Make sure her calcium is not too low now. Low calcium can cause parethesia, muscular irritability. Diuretics by itself should not cause jitteriness.
