Question: What is considered to be very High PTH levels

My ESR is elevated - 35 (my age is 45)

PTH - 356.2

Ca - 8.2

Vit D - 25

From what I have read the PTH is way out of range, I seem to be Vit D insufficient but I can't see this raising the PTH this high. I have been dealing with a lot of symptoms for years, (Severe Headaches - I have never had all my life till 3-5 yrs ago, NO sex drive - Not unable works fin! Just no interest. Muscle spasms, severe bone aches, vision issues- have always had 20/20 or better, and numerous others) I am steering toward hyperparathyroidism, but the issue I have is the ca - level of 8.2. What I have been able to find that rules it out, but this also explains ALL my symptoms. I have been unable to find any PTH levels anywhere near mine (That didn't have a tumor). I have a appt. with Encro on Aug 4th, but I am afraid he is going to say same thing, that this is not what it is, but not give me any clue what it is. I have gone to my primary for years with these issues and he has found nothing. I just want to be myself again, I am now where near what I was even 5rs ago. I have no energy and can't get enough sleep, no matter how many hours I sleep.
