Re: one flu over flori's cuckoo nest...a little set-back

Yeah..potassium can be a biggie. Mom was on the road getting a second opinion/workup when they called her cell and demanded she come in for a potassium rider (IV infusion). She was on oral supplements but had been less than religious about them. Low potassium can lead to heart problems. Might be wise to ask for more frequent (weekly) labs to track it.
