Detailed explanation-1: -If you have primary hyperparathyroidism, your blood test will show a higher-than-normal levels of calcium and parathyroid hormone. Your provider may order a sestamibi scan to check for any growths on your parathyroid glands or enlargement of the gland(s).
Detailed explanation-2: -In primary hyperparathyroidism, one or more of the parathyroid glands is overactive. As a result, the gland makes too much parathyroid hormone (PTH). Too much PTH causes calcium levels in your blood to rise too high, which can lead to health problems such as bone thinning and kidney stones.
Detailed explanation-3: -Hypoparathyroidism is diagnosed after a blood test has shown: low parathyroid hormone levels. low calcium levels. high phosphorus levels.
