ER

I ended up in the ER last weekend, my chest pains got worse and I had a low grade fever, after 5 hours there, they said I had very low potassium. They gave me 2 potassium pills , then started a IV with Potassim. OUCH--------------potassium really burns going in. The nurse had the IV rate too high, someone else came in and lowered the rate, but it still burned too badly, so they stopped the IV, then they gave me 2 more potassim pills and sent me home, telling me to see my regular doctor. The low potassium is probably from all the diarrhea I 've been having, I started taking pancreatic enzymes to help with that, maybe I'll be able to get up tp a whopping 95 lbs, only 10 lbs to go, but I've been trying to gain the same 10 lbs for 10 years now!
