What happens when calcitonin levels are high?

How are calcitonin levels affected by thyroid disease?
Auto-immune thyroiditis and differentiated thyroid cancer do not have any effect on blood calcitonin levels. Medullary thyroid cancer or C-cell hyperplasia of the thyroid can cause raised calcitonin levels. Thyroid hormone levels are independent of calcitonin levels.
Is calcitonin level affected in hypothyroidism?
Hypothyroidism is caused by reduced thyroid hormones. Calcitonin level is affected by the calcium levels in the blood and produced in C-cells of the thyroid gland. They are both independent of each other. If the hypothyroidism is because of the removal of the thyroid gland, then there is associated hypothyroidism and no calcitonin in response to calcium stimulation.
