Are you sure it was the flu? Usually people vomit with the stomach flu. Are you on Mestinon?

You were doing pretty poorly when you last posted. Did you recover?

I'm concerned that something else might be going on. Please see your primary care doctor for a follow up visit, and let your neuro know what transpired.

Thanks for concern. I only received potassium while in hosp. My potassium bl level had gone up to 2.9; no more potassium taken. Sure felt like the flu. However several days later when stool culture came back was negative for all it tested for. I take mestinon 60 in A.M. and 180 at night before bed. My neuro was notified while I was in E.R. Bad thing is, he is leaving (March) so I have made an appt. with a new neuro for July. I guess Iam on my own til then. I am pretty much back to normal, so am trying to keep healthy.
