Anyone have elevated calcium levels

I just got the results of some follow up blood work to recheck my cholesterol and it came back that my calcium is slightly elevated. I asked if this could be related to cancer and she said yes but that she did not think it was so she drew more blood to check the calcium in my blood instead of my bones. Normal is 10.4 and I was 10.7. She said that she would be more concerned if it was at 12 or 14, well of course I am kind of freaking out alittle. Not alot just alittle, lol. When I looked it up of course it said that it could be bone cancer. UGH. I do take alot of vit d and calcium plus d. She told me twice that she did not think it was anything but just needed to be sure. Anyone have this happen to them?

Thank you in advance for any responses.
