I'm reposting this for you HiTech, nobody else has answered yet afaik (I'm reading as fast as I can...)
Would appreciate if you could shed any light here:

Hammesfahr definitely said that potassium wasn't the issue and there was NO heart attack.
Couple of q's for the MD's here. Is there a difference between heart attack and cardiac arrest? Can either condition be determined by blood tests hours/days later? Would potassium levels remain low hours after a heart attack or cardiac arrest? If low K can cause cardiac arrest, what about the converse---can cardiac arrest cause low K? If they determined at the hospital that Terri had both a cardiac arrest AND low K, how did they know which came first?
