I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. The leading causes of hyperkalemia are chronic kidney disease, uncontrolled diabetes, dehydration, having had severe bleeding, consuming excessive dietary potassium, and some medications. A doctor will typically diagnose hyperkalemia when levels of potassium are between 5.0?5.5 milliequivalents per liter (meq/l). Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
