Are you experiencing tingling or a funny, fuzzy feeling in your mind? When mine is low, I had that. It scared me to death!! I got an IV of calcium and I was good as new!!
I have been told mine should be between 8-10.

Kaiser in No Calif lists the acceptable calcium range as 8.5-10.3 mg/dl (miiligrams per decaliter) and my level has always been between these values (1 yr kidney transp). I take 2 calcium pills/day (500mg each) as I am 75.
