A member asked:
Have been told my calcium level is 2.9. is that high? doc recommends monthly blood tests to monitor - necessary?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: If referring to ionized calcium, it is high--if serum calcium, very low. Either needs addressed by your dr & monitored closely (=blood work) until normalized. Good luck!
