A member asked:

Can hypocalcemia cause denervation, angular atrophic fibers, and pyknotic nuclear clumps in the muscles?

Hypocalcemia causes tingling around the mouth, cramps in hands a feet. If not corrected, it could lead to heart arrhythmia. There may not be time for the chronic lesions you described develop before fatal events.

NO! Low calcium is not a cause of abnormal structural muscle diseases.
