What does an elevated parathyroid hormone level mean?
It means that for whatever reason, your parathyroid glands are trying to increase your blood's calcium level. This may be a normal response if you are hypocalcemic. However, if your calcium levels are normal (or even high) it may be the result of a malfunction of the parathyroid glands. Chronically elevated parathyroid hormone will cause your bones to release so much calcium to your blood that weak bones result.
Should you take vitamin d3 supplements if you have hyperparathyroidism?
Typically with hyperparathyroidism your calcium levels are elevated so your body does not convert vitamin D to the active form of D3. This is a protective measure because more D means more calcium added to an already elevated level. But your body needs adequate D for proper muscle function and metabolism. Hence some of the symptoms of HPT is due to low D, not elevated calcium. Elevated calcium does have symptoms but low D causes the muscle weakness. So what do you do? I think the jury is still out on how to help with some of the symptoms of HPT so surgery is still your only option to get things back to normal. In my opinion, taking D puts you at risk of elevating your calcium to a really dangerous level.
What cause Calcium in eye?

When Atrial natriuretic peptide is elevated what does it cause?
Its an indicator of congested heart failure.
What is inside calcium carbonate?
CaCO3 + H2CO3(aq) -> CaCO3 + H2CO3(aq) There is nothing to drive any sort of reaction at conditions near STP. At elevated temperatures such as would be found in a cement kiln, the calcium carbonate would decompose to calcium oxide and carbon dioxide while the carbonic acid would have long since evaporated to give water vapor and carbon dioxide.

Why is elevated glutamate levels neurotoxic?
Elevated glutamate levels opens calcium permeable ion channels, which flood the cell interior with calcium. This in turn opens pores in the mitochondria, which allows for proteins guarding apoptosis to flood the cell in great numbers, thus killing the cell from inside.
