[QUOTE="greencajun, post: 2651869, member: 581749"] Thanks for the reply. The doctor did mention insulin resistance and I googled that. Surprisingly, she did not mention dietary changes. I know vegetables are healthy but I have difficulty eating them, unfortunately. When you say to avoid "grain," you don't mean whole grain, do you? Like rye or wheat bread? The low potassium seems to be the biggest issue at the moment, since it is not going up despite two doses of 650mg each day. The doctor thinks something must be causing potassium to be removed from my body, but she does not know how it is happening. A 24-hour urine test showed normal levels of potassium in the urine. The low potassium may be connected somehow to my low blood oxygen. [/QUOTE]
