What Causes Dizziness While Suffering From Hypercalcemia?
Hello my wife is 58 years white and going through a strange diagnosis she has Hypercalcemia and is having a horrible time with dizziness and has to watch every little thing she eats or drinks right down to bottled water or medicine, is there a possible plan of treatment that these other doctors are missing ? Please and thank you. Pat

Hello,
In her case of hypercalcemia, I would recommend checking parathyroid glands because a parathyroid tumour may be the reason for hypercalcemia.
Also, severe osteoporosis or bone metastasis can increase calcium levels in the blood.
Hope I have answered the question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
