I am wonder why you had blood test done in two consecutive months unless you have significant underlying medical problems which require monthly lab. The calcium level may vary with volume, high calcium may be present when volume is low (usually you will see a higher albumin and Hct at the same time). In general, taking 500-1,000 mg of calcium citrate a day is not causing that change. Take care.
