What is Hyperkalemia?

Hyperkalemia is when potassium levels in the blood are too high. Common causes are kidney disease and some medication side effects.

Typical Symptoms of Hyperkalemia

Diagnostic Questions for Hyperkalemia

Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:

  • Are you currently on dialysis?
  • Do your toes feel numb or tingly?
  • Are you urinating less?
  • Do you have discomfort in the upper abdomen, like an upset tummy?
  • Do you have numbness in your arm?

Treatment of Hyperkalemia

Doctors treat hyperkalemia by suggesting changes in diet and/or medication. For severe hyperkalemia, they may prescribe medicines to lower potassium levels. In some cases, emergency dialysis is needed to fix the issue.
