Resolved Question: Potassium overdose?
Has anyone ever heard of a person reacting to a pack of blood given in a transfusion and killing someone with potassium.
The explanation given to me was that when the pack of blood was hung and started the red blood cells exploded inside the body and caused the release of potassium. 2 hours after the blood pack was started heart arythmia started. 45min after that they were in full blown cardiac arrest and nothing could be done to save the life. The person was also on dialysis and heprin was being used with that.

Open Question: Chest Pain and Feinting?
So my friend just got back from a primary care physician and complaining about her heart hurting and periodic feinting for about 11 months. The doctor is suggesting a Cardiologist and says when he listens to her heart he heres a “murmur” I’m not to sure what that means so it leaves me with the question…
What types of things could be wrong?
Whats the worst possible thing under these effects?
Whats the best possible outcome of these effects?
Thanks in advance!
