A member asked:

Went to er saturday, blood work good except low potassium. took 40meq for three days, now back to 20. still not feeling well, should i go back to er?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Full workup: I am going to assume you are not overdoing licorice or taking medications. You need a workup to rule out a potassium wasting nephropathy and a potassium-wasting colon tumor. Your physician can do this or refer you. Good luck and stay pro-active.
