Ruth, Thank you for the reply.  I am so sorry to hear about your Tiger. Hazel is about 11 now.  She was about 9 when she was diagnosed with hypercalcemia.  She doesn't have CKD.  She doesn't have IBD, either, but she has had chronic constipation for about five years, which is managed with wet...

Hope your baby is doing ok. Yes, I have experience with this too.  After ruling out all the other possibilities, Hazel was diagnosed with idiopathic hypercalcemia.  We have managed it for a couple years with a biphosphonate infusion, fluids, a diuretic, and a steroid.  However two years later it...
