Thank you doc for the very good explanation

Sir your way of explanation is just awosome

Thank you sir this information... i am hypokalemia patient

Thank you so much for all of this information, now I have the knowledge to understand my illness.

Good day doc new subscriber here,,

Excellent explanation sir 🙏🙏🙏

Is the sour foods like green manggo and vinegar reduces potassium?

شكرا لك

where are you doctor please

Doc is it true that eating sour food can reduce potassium in the body..?? Please answer cause i suffer from hypokalemic paralysis too.😢😢

i have a hypokalimia and my doctor gave me kalium durule cuz my potassium is 2.80 and last m0nth i check it its 4.23 but i check it now its 3.73 my tyroid and kriatinine are n0rmal whats wr0ng

Interesting to hear a low body temperature can cause hypokalemia ? Please more information on this. Both me mom and I have been diagnosed with this in recent years and we both have low “normal “ body temperatures. 97.2- 97.6 can be our normals.

I had always looked for this type of board-less direct teaching method,writing it on the screen or paper most of the time makes it less likely to be recalled in practice!

Thank you sir for great effort ..but plz one thing l dont understand about the mechnism of loss of K in vomiting ??why renal excreated K in blood alkalosis ????

Doc am a 64 year old patient i was operated on my thyrroiud gland last October 2014. After that operation i experienced epilepsy and then right now am suffering from hypocalcemia. Most of the time am in and out of the hospital due to low potassium . can you give me some tips or what food to eat so i may stop this stress. Besides am taking so many calcium medicines and also valproic acid for my epilepsy

I'm checking my potassium level every 4 weeks... this is the only way I can catch it before it drops to much. With medications it will increase to 4,2-4,6, but after a few weeks it's back to 3,5 (yes, that's normal, but if I wait much longer, then it drops lower and faster to 2,8... ). It started when I was 24 years old. The first year we didn't realize it, but after couple of nights at emmergency room I started to get my blood tested every 4 weeks. And I don't have any problems with hormons, kidneys and etc. This is my only healt problem.....

well said sir

Thanks sirrr.

I always thought the sodium potassium pump would pump potassium out of the cells using ATP, how would that cause hypokalemia by activating the pump?

Finally someone who gives straight facts . This is what im looking for not some pseudoscientist telling me halftruths .

Hypokalemia treatment plz share video

First time doctor just tell me that i have hypokalemia but never told how can i loss all the kalium. Until transfer to other hospital and they searching the causes of my hypokalemia is because genetic disorder bartter syndrome 🙄 well its been 13 years live with it.

I experienced Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis

I train hard and then I get hypokalemia... this happens to me often :( this is my own self diagnosis.

Sir I suffer hypokalemia for almost 7 years and I can no longer walk ,is there a chance that i can recover?

Hypocalemia and hypocalcemia that is my illness now doc.

Uhhm Sir i had bartter syndrome

Does having sex causes hypokalemia?

My neurologist says I have hypokalemic periodic paralysis but my levels of potassium were normal during attack. I know I have periodic paralysis but not convinced it’s hypokalemic.
