I need to check this out Sneaks. Is it possible one banana a day could cause excess potassium?

Highly unlikely, but the only way to know for sure is a blood test.
You seeing underpants gnomes stealing your undies?
That reminds me of the time my mom took ambien, she had a conversation with the aliens in the corner of the hospital room.
I'll have to look into this. I've been experiencing sometimes nightly leg cramps so bad, death would've been acceptable relief. I thought it was lack of potassium and self medicated and screwed my numbers up terribly. When my doctor found out how much I was taking, she jumped all over me. I told her that she wasn't helping me so I took matters into my own hands.
I finally started looking into the meds she HAS prescribed, and found atorvastatin can cause muscle cramps, elevated blood sugar, and ED
I suffer two out of three and sure as hell don't want to gamble with the third.I ran out about a week ago and noticed that leg cramps are almost nonexistent now. I can't wait to get bloodwork again to check my A1C, which is borderline even though I watch my sugar intake religiously.
I'm on Metformin and started doing a daily blood sugar test at the beginning of April. Got my A1C down from 8.7 to 5.5. My 90 day blood glucose daily average from 127 down to 11. I've also lost 27 pounds since the beginning of July.
I'm on Metformin as well, but I'm looking into my other meds side effects, because I DO watch what I eat and my numbers should be a lot better.
I also cut WAY back on alcoholic beverages.
I'm celebrating 9 years on Pearl Harbor Day which just so happens to be my fiancé's birthday. Maybe all the abuse before I quit has had an effect that's long lasting.

No, but Momma talks about the people crowding her in her kitchen.
She lives alone though.

Where do you get this...asking for a friendAmbien is so dangerous.
I have posted about this before, I am sure. It was well over a decade ago but I was one of those people who was sleep driving on Ambien - going to WAWA and buying blow pops and gum in my housecoat.
And I might have been driving those underpants gnomes in my backseat.
Scary drug...

Talking to yourself is a sign of intelligence!
It helps a person organize thoughts, memory retention, improves cognitive performance, brain function and helps boost self esteem.
So keep on talking to yourself.
Sometimes I am the only one posting and replying in my own threads.

After talking to a few folks for a while, they claim after taking the MRNA vaccines, their BP has been all over the place.

I have spoken to a few who told me the same thing.
I am unvaccinated.
I only have 1 functioning kidney due to losing one in childhood due to a UPJ obstruction that went unnoticed, well, I was in the hospital for Pneumonia so it was just missed.
I opted not to get the vaccine. One girl with the same condition I have in Virginia died after getting the vaccine so that was enough for me. She was young. It was heartbreaking.
I ended up off the magnesium in Jan. due to having slightly elevated numbers (just a tad over marker). I was taking a bit too much.
Right now, I am feeling better than I have in a long time. I went off several medications. I was on 4 pills now just 1 pill, Lisinopril. I have accepted that I will always be on some dose of Lisinopril for the rest of my life and that is due to my living with 1 kidney.
Tomorrow, I will find out if I am going on a pill for high uric acid. Thanks dad
And I say that because I'm sure I inherited that but also some of the medication I was on can cause it to go up. Even on the high end of studies that show the medications do raise UA, I know it won't account for all of it. There is very little diet will do here if I inherited it.
