>I'm completly lost.All my blood test for electrolytes are with a low

levels.close to the lowe range sodium and high,even one of the last results over

the top range potassium.

>How is posible to get this high level of aldosterone? From what I have read if

that is the case I should have a very low potassium levels and mine are so high

in a serum blood test.Is it possible that my RBC potassium is very low and I do

need potassium? But from what I have asked you and your respond a hig levels of

serum potassium is very dangeres,so how in the world I should be able to start

taking a potassium if it's very low in RBC ,wich I will do very soon if my serum

test shows very high levels of potassium.Please help.
