Excess calcium will start to mineralize parts we DON'T want to mineralize.. like blood vessels, gallbladder, etc. That interferes with smooth muscle in contraction if we have crystals of Ca. I am sure that there are other problems. However this is a water-soluble mineral. If you have too much circling around your system, your body will try and dump it out in your urine, although that can cause kidney stones.
no, but it can cause liver problems Hypercalcemia (too much calcium in the blood) can cause abdominal pain

The parathyroid gland is most likely not functioning properly if there is too much calcium ion in the blood. This condition is known as hyperparathyroidism, which can lead to high levels of calcium in the blood (hypercalcemia).
If you get too much calcium you may get calcium deposits on your bones.
Just like anything else consumed, too much calcium can be harmful to the body. Overconsumption of calcium, or hypercalcemia, can result in kidney stones, irregular heart rhythm, and in severe cases, blood clots.

First of all, Please do not confuse hypercalcemia with hypercalemia. The first one hypercalCEMIA is too much calcium of the blood. The second one which is your question word, Hypercalemia is too much potassium of the blood.
The parathyroid glands are most likely to be working incorrectly if a person has too much calcium ion in their blood. These glands regulate calcium levels in the body by releasing parathyroid hormone, which can lead to increased calcium levels if overproduced.
Yes, I believe it can. I was on extreme amounts of calcium (8000 mg/day plus 2 mcg of Calcium/Vitamin D supplement) due to damage to my parathyroids. I started having muscle cramps in my neck, arms, legs and back. I mentioned it to my doctor and after a blood test it was found I did have too much calcium in my blood. They said that cramping could be a sign of too much calcium (as well as too little calcium).
TSH or Thyroid Stimulating Hormone,which is released from the pituitarygland in the brain, stimulates the C cells in the thyroid gland to produce calcium. If too much calcium is in the blood there is possibly an oversecretion of TSH from the pituitary gland.
Calcium channel blockers will not cure high blood pressure, but will help to control the condition.
