Talk:Hypercalcaemia

message: I believe that renal failure can cause hypercalcaemia, but NOT via secondary hyperparathyroidism which, by definition, is due to hypocalcaemia. So-called tertiary hyperparathyroidism is a cause of hypercalcaemia, albeit a rare one.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.56.52.140 (talk) 06:54, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

message: The mnemonic is cute, but not very descriptive or helpful for those who are not medical professionals. For example, what is meant by "psychotic noise"? Is this a medical term? I'm having difficulty finding a definition. 24.34.190.157 (talk) 12:34, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

message: What's wrong with a mnemonic? The Great Unwashed might be able to understand something professional and encroach on your sacred territory? It worked for me. I'm not a health professional (my expertise lies elsewhere), but it was my understanding that Wikipedia was designed to be accessible to everyone -- including doctors, who are as prone to forgetfulness as anyone else. I stumbled across this excellent article in a hunt for causes of leg pain, and I didn't take an elevated calcium level seriously until I found this. I hear music most of the time, sometimes whole choruses of "voices" (along with harpsichords, Andean flutes, you name it) and I'm quite sane, thank you. I knew instantly what the writer was referring to. What would you call it?  24.4.28.149 (talk) 18:08, 4 July 2010 (UTC)

message: Where does williams syndrome fit among causes of this symptom?  I know it's genetic, but the hypercalcaemia might be secondary to another symptom of the syndrome.--Joel 23:00, 12 May 2005 (UTC)

message: OK, I'm intrigued. How does a phaeo cause hypercalcaemia via increased bone turnover? Ianmc 16:42, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Phaeo and hypercalaemia 

message: There is a redirect from "Hypercalciuria" to "Hypercalcemia" - the two conditions are actually different, with hypercalciuria being a spilling of calcium in urine rather than blood.  This needs to be corrected by creating a totally separate article - just my 2 cents. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Virgil Vaduva (talk • contribs) 16:18, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
