That should bring it up into normal range to begin.

Maybe that was it, this was a long time ago and memory can be wrong.. Should have checked a little further...Thank you for correcting me.

In process of this most of my long covid symptoms rapidly disappeared along with the low K problems as soon as I had reached higher levels. Low K is quite common.
