Hope this can help someone. Low Potassium was the cause of my cystic acne. [Personal]

Beauty Tips For Body Care
I just want to try and help someone if maybe I can because my face was destroyed from this Cystic nightmare. So maybe if you have low potassium levels it's the cause of yours too.I never had acne growing up EVER. Then one day in my 30's I got really sick due to massive blood loss. Short version- I had a fibroid that grew over a 5 year span in my uterus and its location caused me to loose way more blood then a normal person durning my monthly. The bigger it got the more blood I lost. The more blood I lost, the more Vitamin decencies it caused. I had surgery to remove it, and Dr's gave me supplements to replace what was lost to get my levels back to normal. (To get an idea by the end right b4 I had surgery it got so bad I was going through super plus tampons in an hour and had an idiot dr who was doing nothing)Every time I got blood work I noticed my Potassium was low but from some reason they never put me on Potassium. I have gone to every Dr you can think of for my cystic acne (which started around the same time as when the heavy blood loss started). I even went to a Disease Specialist thats supposed to solve any medical mystery and had yet again no answer. Well this past time that I got blood work I said something about it being low. The Dr agreed and put me on Potassium supplements. Shortly after starting it my acne has stopped- my face is no longer oily, I don't have any cysts popping up. I googled Potassium and acne and nothing comes back but I haven't changed my routine or my eating habits or anything and some how I went from everyday cysts and trying to hide my face to being normal again. My skin is softer and looks better too. I don't know the relation but I know the Potassium is what saved me. So if this can help any person out there then thats the point of this post because for years I have had no answers.Of course if you are reading this don't try to self diagnose because Potassium is dangerous, you can die from to much in your system and vice verse. But if you get your blood work done, look at your Potassium levels. I just want to share because I have had no answers and finally FINALLY after ALL THESE YEARS that has been the cause and now I am back to normal again.TL;DR Potassium was low, given supplements from Dr, acne cured. Get blood work done to see if thats your issue to.
