Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor, The high calcium can be treated by first knowing the cause of high calcium levels. Since, you have a history of abnormal kidney function, the high calcium levels could be due to dysfunction of the kidney. The renal function tests need to be done. After assessing the kidney functions, the probable diagnosis can be known. I suggest you to consult a nephrologist for clinical assessment and thus management. Thanks and take care Chat Doctor.
