Stupid Potassium!

I swear to G-d, no matter what I do, my potassium levels are always low. I'm going to talk to my Dr and ask for a prescription or something (every blood test I've had has shown low potassium, when I was in the hospital for my surgery it was super low and I had to have a drip for days).

I eat nanners. I eat taters. I eat veggies. Why does my body hate me?

I don't want to just start taking something because of all the meds I'm on. I want to discuss it with him first, kwim? Plus I'm po'.

I called the hospital to check on my blood test results, and they're not in yet, but she said that they've been consistently low every time I've had blood drawn and to call back on Monday. I just found out my dr's have weekly meetings about me.

Speech Pathologist

So I am seeing a Speech Pathologist/Memory person for my TBI stuff and she says that I have "executive memory function" issues and gives me assignments.

I now get to write To-Do list.
And I have a day planner.
I schedule daily cleaning.
But I'm doing better on writing stuff down!
She's super nice, I  love her.
