Yes, your serum calcium is still within normal limit. 10.3 or 10.4 mg/dl is usually the high limit in most laboratory references. Serum calcium does fluctuate with the degree of hydration. Low in volume (dehydration) raises serum calcium.

All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, your results are not a cause for concern. Wish you good health!
