My visit to the ER...everyone should know this

Guys, I went to the ER w/ pain and labored breathing.... pneumonia.

But in the blood work and all the doc came back in and said my potassium was way low. That normal was 3.5-5 and I was at 3.

He asked about my diet...and I shared with him my lapband story...how my eating has decreased so much over the months...but I was happy.

He said potassium is the first stage of malnutrition.

No worries though as it's easily fixed...

just FYI to everyone...keep up the fruit intake!

I stopped eating fruit as it's too fiberous and I slime it up. But word to the wise.... if you can't eat fruit...drink the juice.

So I'm forgoing Water and just sipping juice all day.
