> This is interesting to me. I have ndi - nephrogenic diabetes insipidus - which has caused hypercalcuria and high blood phosphate, low sodium, etc. I control it with 25 mg. of hydrochlorthiozide. Because of ndi, I can't take lithium, which causes ndi in many people. So Mitch, your hypercalcemia may have been a result of lithium.
