Too much calcium in your blood can weaken your bones, create kidney stones, and interfere with how your heart and brain work. Hypercalcemia is usually a result of overactive parathyroid glands.

When the calcium in our blood goes too low, the parathyroid glands make more PTH. Increased PTH causes the body to put more calcium into the blood. Increased PTH causes the bones to release their calcium into the blood.

Kidney disease also leads to an increase in production of parathyroid hormone. This also leads to too much phosphate in your body. The phosphate builds up in your body and binds to calcium. This causes your calcium levels to decrease, which may weaken your bones.
