Need Low Potassium diet

Need Low Potassium diet

Just diagnosed with hypokemia; Tested at 5.9. Specialist took me off amlodipine besylate (Norvasc*,) which had been taken for a year after taking enalapril  for about a year (Can't remember why the change). Put me on Lasix   i tab- a week - ten days ago. Kidney function tested fine. am excreting potassium as well as holding. First blood test showed decrease to 5. second, raised again - raised Lasix to 1 and 1/2 for three days Blood pressure  was 130 over 72 now runs around 119/62 .  Am trying low potassium foods as on vacation away from doctor.
Online sources say coffee tea and alcohol are ok.. But conflicting about green peas, blurberries, grapes and apples. Are they ok?
