I will be posting often I'm sure, I have had problems with high calcium in the past causing massive kidney stones, they was surgically removed and I had a severe kidney infection after from the stent coming slightly dislodged. The whole process is painful. I'm hoping it never comes to that again but I'm terrified it will

Hello @miasmama23

It sounds like you need to be posting in the Connect discussion about hyperparathyroidism, rather than the Heart & Blood Health group. Here are links to discussions on hyperparathyroidism, where members discuss this type of high calcium level:
https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/diabetes-and-endocrine-problems/?search=hyperparathyroidism#discussion-listview
Here is some information about hyperparathyroidism from Mayo Clinic's website, https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/hypoparathyroidism/symptoms-causes/syc-20355375

Do you know what your Parathyroid Hormone Level is? (This would be determined from a blood test.) Have you had an ultrasound your neck or a CT scan of the neck to see if any nodules can be found on the parathyroid glands?
