Potassium is a mineral your body uses as an electrolyte, which means it carries an electrical charge. Potassium and other electrolytes--including sodium, phosphate, calcium and chlorine--are present in your blood and other bodily fluids. Your kidneys excrete these minerals from your body to maintain the correct balance.
Not all imbalances cause the same symptoms. Each type of electrolyte disorder can cause an array of symptoms. However, several of the disorders share many of the same symptoms. Common symptoms of an electrolyte disorder include: 1  dark urine (a sign of dehydration). 2  irregular heartbeat. 3  fatigue. 4  lethargy. 5  convulsions or seizures. 6  nausea and/or vomiting. 7  bowel irregularities (including diarrhea and constipation). 8  abdominal cramping.
