Hi

Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
You will need to get kidney function, liver function, thyroid function and diabetes assessed. If this is already done then you have essential hypertension. If you are taking any drugs for high blood pressure, then this too can cause a slightly low potassium. If all tests are normal, then you can take citrus fruits, banana and green leafy vegetables to supplement potassium. It is important to bring your blood pressure under control. First aim at that. In all probability the potassium level will settle down.
Hope this helps. Take care!

Have you had your kidneys checked?

Have you been tested for diabetes, and thyroid disease?

Your symptoms could be caused by lots of different illnesses

Have you had a cortisol blood test along with other hormones done?

Your pulse can go low, wow its a wonder you havent fainted. have you been tested for an underactive thyroid?

Have you seen a cardiologist or other consultant?
Do you have any other symptoms , like fatigue, dry skin. sweating etc?
