Val, I

yesterday I took 69mlq of potassium. I woke up at 6:00 and had bad

heart palps, and bad leg cramps. Then the diarrhea started. I have had

it all day so far. I feel weak and shaky and sick to my stomach. I

called the doc to see if they could call the lab and get the results of

my blood test from tomorrow. They said they would try. I can't see them

till Thurs. Do you think I need more potassium? Thanks, Bernetta

I think taking things because others may need or use them is a very dangerous thing.

Most of the time people do manage to get enough potassium. It's only when their diet

is extremely lacking as in the restrictions on someone diabetic that supplementation

is necessary. Yes, potassium can cause a heart attack. My cardiologist has cautioned me about this.

I think it's a good idea to try to get an electrolyte panel and discuss with the doctor how much of each thing we need and how best to accomplish that. I have an appointment tomorrow with my cardio and I do want to have this discussion with him, because of water retention and swelling.

Was that the first time you took potassium? If I were you, I would back off and

start slower. See what happens. Potassium can be hard on the stomach. Best taken

with food if it bothers you. As for yesterday, any excess should be long gone by

now.

Roni, those of us experiencing low Potassium problems and looking for guidance

from Val need to hear from her. It's insulting when you accuse people of " taking

things because others may need or use them. " For various reasons some people on

this board have trouble with K levels. Val is extremely knowlegable about it and

has posted extensively on it. You may want to do a search with her name and

potassium as the subject matter and become informed.

Roni, because I am the list owner here and people value MY advice they

often post directly to me on the group with my name in the subject or

body of the message. I do nto encourage private emails as I read group

mails first thne IF I have time I read personal emaisl. I also take

deliberate time OFF my groups as I get burned out as I have done this

6-8 hours a day for the last 12 years or so.

Kerry you are making an assumption, and berating me for what is in your own mind. I have also been trying to find out about my own potassium intake, so what you think I meant by what I said is your own interpretation. As a matter of fact Val felt someone was using too much potassium too. It would be nice if you didn't attack me before you knew what I was actually saying. I meant nothing bad to that person, and was concerned for her welfare.

I am on this group because I have problems too.

I understand that, and if the post had been addressed to you I wouldn't have responded.

I don't see your name in the subject of that post. I see now she did say Val, but it didn't register at the time. Sorry if I stepped on anyones toes, didn't mean to at all. I appreciate all the work you do on this group.
