Ho Olga, I'm sorry to hear that you're having some problems. Let's hope they disappear as you lose more weight. I haven't had the surgery yet, but I too take potassium. Right now it's pills, but they do make it in liquid. Call your pharmacy or doctor. Sandy

Hi Olga, I am post op too. I have a potassium capsule that i open and mix with a little applesauce or pudding. I checked before hand cause that liquid is nasty.The pharmacist was very helpful. I also bought a pill crusher and splitter to help with my meds. Michelle

Hi Michelle, I take urocit-K and you can't crush them. Who makes your capsule that you mix with applesauce? Thanks so much. Sandy

Olga, you really need to let your doc know these symptoms you are having. Potassium deficiency is not a good thing. Any kind of pain is not good, it is your body's way of trying to tell you something. You should call your doc as soon as possible. Good luck to you! Kathy~
