Hi there Lyla there are many symptoms of low potassium including cramps and twitches. Do you have any specific concerns? Have you been tested for it?

Yes, I was tested because I have to get Cataract surgery, that's how I found out it was low...now that you mentioned cramps, I was getting them... Thank You so much for the reply..

Good afternoon Lylagirl,

If you suspect you have low potassium levels may I suggest you speak with a doctor for clarification, diagnosis and treatment if required.

Best wishes,
