Hi I had surgery 2-11-04 Im down to 135 pounds size 4-6 . I take all my vitamins eat my protien and potassium rich foods & exercize . You can say Im following the rules. I have blood taken every 3 months due to my problem with potassium. Its so low . Its now making my Blood pressure very high. I had quit taking the meds for that last year and was doing great untill now. I take a suppliment from doctor , Vitamins and a over the counter supplement also my B.P. meds are supposed to raise potassium . Its still low Im at a loss . Is there a vitamin that helps absorb it? Am I missing a key componate?My doctor doesent know or he'd do something . Im at a loss and its getting scary just because it can damage the heart. If you know something or have someone to ask Id appriciate all you can tell me thanks

There is a column in the Oregonian on sudays I think about your health. You could put it to them. I know there are some vitamins or medicines you shouldn't take with each other or other things or foods as they can cancel each other out or be ineffective. This could be one of those quirky situations. Wish I could be of more help. Jerry

ok, its called People's Pharmacy and it used to be in "Living" section, but they changed the paper around and it's now in the O! section. Poeple ask questions about drugs and what effects they have and such and how they react to others, etc.
