RE: "her body had become deficient in potassium........which caused a short circuit in her brain."

You're kidding?

I had a simple blood test and the result showed I had an abnormally low potassium (the result said "PANIC", no kidding, the doctor called me back to the clinic immediately and told me to eat a banana & OJ on the way, after which the test was normal), and I had a low iodine (salt) level, because I was eating too healthily!!!

I've changed my diet to include more bananas and OJ, which have potassium. I was probably eating too many vegies.

What is bulimic - isn't that where a person throws up or something to lose weight, or something really gross like that?

I wonder if more was going on than just a low potassium level? I sure hope so. Or, maybe there is such a thing as eating too healthy. I'll ask my Doctor when I have my annual exam about potassium. They didn't seem worried about it at all.

Regards,
Amy J
