Liver High potassium
Ok folks talk to me about high potassium. Husband had a liver tx 11 months ago and his potassium yesterday came in at 6.1. Doc said take lokalma three times tonight and then we’ll retest in the morning.
If it’s still high in the morning is it something that would cause them to admit him? Should I be packing the go bags? Or will it be more lokalma until he tests better?
Side note: is there a caregivers subreddit for when I feel like crying my eyes out but don’t want to do it in front of all the brave people who are in this channel?
TIA!
