      My Dr said they changed the upper limit of the normal range from 100 NG/ML to 50 NG/ML, due to Increased risk of hypercalciuria.  What is the recommended level we really be at?

          That's the $64,000 question.   My specialist says that what level we should be at has really never been determined.  They can look at norms, but the levels haven't been studied enough to know where we should be at.  He won't test levels for that reason.
