No, I'm not a doctor.  Just a fellow patient who does a lot of research in order to try to help others.

Do you have the reference range for the calcium?  And what was the PTH level, with reference range.  Reference ranges vary lab to lab, so have to come from your own lab report.

thanks for your reply .are you a doc

What is the reference range for the calcium and what is the exact level of PTH, with reference range?  Your calcium seems to be slightly elevated, but that would depend on the reference range used by your lab.  

How often do you take the 50,000 iu of vitamin D?  Maybe you need to take it more often?
