A member asked:
Had the stomach flu 5 days ago been very weak since, weakness in thigh & tingling in fingers - could this be low potassium levels?

Sure: You could still be dehydrated and have any number of electrolyte abnormalities. Drink water or even try pedialyte solution if you don't improve quickly.
