Calcium is important for healthy bone and tooth. But excessive presence of calcium in blood may cause some problems, such as tiredness, loss of appetite, vomiting.etc. It may also cause diarrhea leading to dehydration and thirst. Sometime with high calcium in blood may cause confusion and a person may become unconscious. High calcium level in blood may indicate excessive secretion of parathyroid hormone which should be treated. High calcium in blood also indicate bone disease. Excessive drinking of milk and frequent intake of antacids can increase calcium level in blood.
