Elevated potassium?
Last night i couldn't sleep properly had muscle ache as well.
Today I did a KFT, the potassium was a bit elevated. Is that a concern?
I have done hba1c, sugar fasting and pp, urine routine and ultrasound abdomen.
All are normal.
Just the potassium is a bit elevated and the chloride is baseline low.
Is that a concern? I Drink 3L of water everyday.
I ate dum aloo last night, could that be the reason why this is high in potassium?
And please tell me whats the safe limit of potassium everyday
