Brief Answer:
Medication side effects/Kidney disease
Detailed Answer:
Hello Mam,
Welcome to healthcaremagic
I read your question and understand your concern.If your thyroid and parathyroid glands are normal,then the next thing which comes to mind is your kidney's condition.
If i were your doctor,i would advise a serum urea and creatinine to check your kidney's status.If you are taking any medications,it might also be the reason.
If your potassium levels and calcium level is too high, please consult your physician as soon as possible.
Hope i answered your query.Feel free to ask more.
