I asked her if the patient has hx of low potassium ..."yes." I asked does she have hypertension and is it drug resistant? Yes again. I got the NP hooked up with your evolution article. She was amazed! There are several people that visit our clinic that seem to have labs and sx. Maybe if I can get my np and pa to learn we could really he some.
