[QUOTE="Star*, post: 526968, member: 4964"] Google hypokalemia. It's complicated. I get tested for this every three months due to the diuretic I take and it's affect on my liver and kidneys - the diuretic I take is the strongest one available and I"m on a really high does because my right leg (whatever reason - unknown) swells and my foot gets like a balloon. WITHOUT the medication I can't get a shoe on and my toes look like they will blow off. I've been tested for fibroid tumors, and all kinds of weird stuff. BUT the diuretic is strong - so it depletes things in my body and can case my blood to do something too - acid keratosis I think....(spelling may be wrong) Its a great medicine, just has to be monitored. With hypokalemia - the biggest problem is how your body processes magnesium - and there are so many combinations to what could / could not be going on - only a doctor could rule it out. [/QUOTE]
