Day 5 -
hmm so last night i fell asleep on the couch, and then woke up at like 2am to go my bedroom. However my breathing was a little off and I Couldn't fall back asleep. I felt very anxious like the medication was doing something bad and throwing off my heart rhythm. Then I was having a small panic attack. I started to kind of worry that i was having hyperkalemia or something and lots of thoughts were racing through my head.
I took my dose early that morning, and i drank a good amount of water atleast about 64oz. So it seems weird that i would be experiencing side effects almost 20 hours later? Given that the medication has a short half-life from what I hear.
i feel a little better this morning, but still a bit slightly like butterflies in my stomach and nerves. I can't tell if its stress induced or from the medication. I tend to be a worry wort, and especially when it comes to medical issues I always think i have every illness or condition. I had some fears upfront about taking Spiro (Hyperakalemia killing me etc)
