I have been fighting severe lower extremity edema for 3 weeks and due to diuretics dropped my
potassium from 4.0 to 3.0 in just a few short days. I have been taking
potassium supplements while on the diuretics, but now I am having some arrhythmias and last night had something that felt like a little quiver. My question is, how worrisome are these symptoms? Also, I was hospitalized a few years ago with potassium of 2.4 with severe leg cramps, etc.
