34 y/o female. ca level 11.5, vit d. 20. 4 mos ago, pth was 14 and ca 10.1. haven't felt well for months. could high calcium be a fluke (dehydration)?

I would be most: suspicious of the low vitamin D level. The PTH (normal range considered to be 10-65 pg/ml or ng/L) seems to be about right for the modestly elevated initial calcium level. But if that calcium level was really the result of dehydration (which could be the explanation) then a PTH of 14 is a little low and hypoparathyroidism might be considered.Consider further investigation and vitamin D supplement
