Had my 2 monthly bloods for Abermaciclib monitoring and Calcium is slightly raised at 2.63. Anyone else had raised Calcium and will I need further investigation? I am on Letrozole, Abemaciclib, Apixaban and Vit D. Had Zoledronic infusion in November. Could it be drug related?
Hi meI28,
I understand your anxiety, I check my bloods as soon as they come through but 2.63 is only slightly raised and they can be valid reasons apart from recurrence which can cause alterations in our blood profile. Excess vitamin D or acute kidney injury are just 2 reasons that I’m aware of. Phone and speak to a BCN as other markers in your blood are also abnormal if bone metastasis occur.

Thank you for replying. I dread having blood tests these days as there is always something abnormal and sends me into a bloody panic and then I start googling, which I know I shouldn't do. Have telephone consultation with oncology on Monday so not too long to wait
