still kicking. its a very low dose. 2.5

That is a low dose. 10 is more common I think. I took 40mg a day for 2 weeks and had to reduce to 20 and then 10 and down to 5 and finally 1 before I could get off of it.

roberts on 20mg a day for 15 days no step down.

A little bit. When I end up in the ER for this I'm usually low on potassium and Magnesium. So I just took a bunch here. I take potassium every day now. Not sure what's up. Hope I'm doing OK tomorrow. Have a mammo tomorrow morning.

too much potassium is just as bad. Can cause a MI.

My mother had to have water pills and potassium for decades. Then after a blood clot in a leg artery she had to go on a very high priced blood thinner. Don't remember the name of it.
