Endocrinologist,  's  Response
Dear Ma'm, primary hyperparathyroidism is causing your hypercalcemia. So you got your kidney stones. Thyroid disorders are not always a part of hyperparathyroid spectrum, but then multiple endocrine gland involvement is also not unusual, so caution is always warranted. Please do get your thyroid function checked once. Regards!
