I've been diagnosed with both bipolar disorder and gastroparesis. The last two times that I've had to be admitted to the hospital for my bipolar episodes my potassium levels were low. The second time I just had to take a huge vitamin but the first time they gave it to me through an IV. I've read that a patassium deficiency can can cause symptoms in different systems of the body. The specialist that I went to for the gastroparesis did a number of tests and couldn't determine the cause. Could there be a chance that I've been misdiagnose and that these three issues are related?
