@nimalw I watch my intakes carefully. For me, that is no potatoes, tomatoes, bananas, oranges, grapefruit, etc. I have looked up low potassium fruit and vegetable lists from sources like National Kidney Foundation or American Kidney, and WebMD to get an idea of how to eat my way to steady potassium levels. Of course, each person is different, but perhaps looking at the lists will help?
I sure do miss oranges and bananas. Given my nature, it is easier to just not eat them, rather than "treat" myself once in a while!
