well another thing that's gone wrong since i've been going to this infec doc.

now she says my potassium level is 5.9 and i think normal is up to 5.5. correct me if i'm wrong.

so how does this happen and how can i lower it?

also my back really hurts. she didn't seem concerned about the yeast. i think it's systemic but she was going on about thrush.

she gave me nystatin mouthwash? has anybody ever used this?

Nystatin is pretty commonly used by lymies for yeast. I'll kick this up for some responses.

I had a hair test recently and my potassium levels were high. I haven't talked to a doctor about it yet, but I think I remember the results noting that high potassium is often correlated with low magnesium.
