Why would your potassium be too high?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It can be kidney disease or some medications. In rare cases even dehydration can cause your potassium to be high.
Dr. Rohinipriyanka Suggests...
Take a THYROID PEROXIDASE ANTIBODIES (ANTI MICROSOMAL ANTIBODIES) Test or Take a Chlamydia Tracomatis And Neisseria Gonorrhoeae, Pcr Qualitative Test

View allI am 74 years old. I have been a diabetes and thyroid patient for the last 11 years. Usually, I take one tablet for sugar and one for thyroid. Two months ago, I consulted a doctor who gave me two high-strength medicines for sugar and one medicine for nerves. After a few weeks, I experienced vomiting, so I tested my blood with another doctor. The report showed that my sodium and hemoglobin have decreased, and potassium has increased. Please let me know what I should do? Also, my body is shaking a lot.
