Hi, You don't need to avoid them- just try to be consistent! It's much harder to monitor your potassium levels and see what effect the lisinopril is having if you go on "salad binges" or something like that. Haha. Fruits and veggies are great lifestyle choices- I don't think anyone would tell you to avoid them just because of their potassium content. I'd say just stay away from potassium supplements or salt substitutes like Mrs. Dash and you will probably be ok.

she also got blood work done for signs of fatigue (showed up months before this incident) and her chloride and potassium levels were well above healthy. could this contribute to her period being late? please let me know, thanks.

m wondering if you can or can not use something like Lo Salt that has potassium chloride in it along with beta blockers, and if so how much is recommended. I'm looking to substitute lo salt for some other high in potassium foods in order to cut down on my sugar content.

what is the difference between Potassium Chloride, Potassium Nitrate and Potassium Citrate?

I read something where one of the electrolytes either sodium or chloride increases during ovulation. I think its sodium mainly, and also potassium. I would have to look it up again. I no there is a fertility watch that detects the rise of sodium level which would indicate ovulation.

Liberal use of salt substitutes that contain potassium chloride can add to the potassium load. Liberal use of these products in people with kidney disease can cause dangerously high levels of potassium to build in the bloodstream.

All of your values are a bit low, but the potassium is of most concern. Low levels of potassium, an electrolyte, can cause many symptoms: * Muscle cramps/aches * Fatigue, malaise and intermittent dizziness * Abnormal heart rhythms if the deficiency is not corrected (known medically as arrhythmia) Your symptoms could be due to lower than normal potassium and sodium. I advise seeing that same MD for follow up.

Transfer was postponed till I get better. Doctor gave me Lasix 40 mg to be taken once and Neo-K (potassium chloride) 500 mg twice daily for 5 days for now. My concern is that I ate two potatoes, one banana, a cup of yogurt, and tomato, all potassium sources today.

I know from experience many labs can be in range with plenty of symptoms. One in particular is vitamin B12 serum. I have had B12 malabsorption symptoms since I was a child (I have autoimmune pernicious anaemia) but still had B12 labs in range at age 31. By age 35 my B12 finally went below the range. So I also had lifelong symptoms vanish (except for permanent nerve damage) taking a single nutrient. If I stop taking my sublingual B12 spray symptoms show up in days.

Scary episode of hypomagnesia hypocalcemia and low potassium after thyroidectomy...drs keep saying magnesium and potassium low had nothing to do with thyroidectomy but how is this possible...niw that I got all three levels are back up but wondering every day if they may go back down is pure torture...ever heard of this???

Fatigue can be a symptom of very low potassium levels, however, it's not one of the major symptoms and sonnytabby did not provide reference ranges, which vary lab to lab, so we don't know for sure that the levels are low.

Last time my potassium levels were tested was 5/6/08, with a result of 4.0 (range 3.5-5.3). Potassium has to be balanced with sodium and chloride. My levels of both of those were high in their ranges. Of course, we all know that tests done more than 2 yrs ago, are not relevant today. I've since changed pcp's and the one I currently have, has "tunnel vision" and only focuses on cholesterol.
