Put him on a special med within 3 hours to leech most of it out of his body. Another blood test today, waiting on results. But no phone call from the Dr yet, so hopefully it worked. With his heart condition he doesnt need this...... kidney specialist on Monday, ultrasound next week.

So ohms please.... That Larry will get past this hurdle and be ready to travel again soon....

Good mornin, thanks ya'll... Better news, The three doses of meds got him out of the danger zone... As far his potassium. Went from 6.2 down to 5.0..... But he still sees kidney doctor on Monday....

Keep the ohms coming....


What is potassium and why is it important to you?

Potassium is a mineral found in many of the foods you eat. It plays a role in keeping your heartbeat regular and your muscles working right. It is the job of healthy kidneys to keep the right amount of potassium in your body, as they filter your blood. If your potassium becomes too high, it can cause an irregular heartbeat or a heart attack.

What is a safe level of potassium in my blood?


If it is 3.5-5.0………………………You are in the SAFE zone
If it is 5.1-6.0………………………You are in the CAUTION zone
If it is higher than 6.0……………..You are in the DANGER zone

Thanks for the good news, Di.
I had not commented earlier. I feel so much better after your report today. I have deep troubles when dear friends have traumas.
Hugs!

Di, my retroactive ohms must have worked. Amazing. I read your post from yesterday, today. I sent out ohms your way (using a short prayer) about 11:15 eastern time today. The ohms traveled back to yesterday and this a.m. and wala Larry is feeling better and the test results proved it. Man, can you believe it? Retroactive ohms. What will the mutants be capable of next?

Seriously, Larry- - keep up the with your health improvement. Tell the doctors to go ahead with the new battery. You have things to do and meeting an "artificial waiting time for a signal from an inanimate object" just doesn't sound like anything but bureaucratic mumbo jumbo to sensible folks like us.

I am so relieved that Larry studied for the potassium test and got an A+

Well we're on for grilling and chilling with the Mary and Don at their place... At last we will have a MiniC with the Toy Duck. Long overdue!
