what can I do about it? What can I eat to bring my levels up? Does anyone else have this problem? Does this happen often with WLS patients?

I didn't know what hypkalemia was, so I google it.  Looks like low potassium.  right?  So did your doctor put you on a potassium supplement?  

This is the info I found on Wiki

yes that is right, low potassium. yes he did--double time. I nearly passed out at the store and they had to call the ambulance. the worst feeling in my life-it definitely scared me. thanks for checking it out for me. I have to do more blood work on tomorrow and go back to the dr. this week.
