Gitelman syndrome impacts infant development
We examined a unique case of an 18-month-old boy diagnosed with Gitelman syndrome, a rare condition leading to developmental delays.

His symptoms included psychomotor retardation and low potassium levels. Genetic tests confirmed mutations in the SLC12A3 gene, responsible for this condition.

After oral potassium supplementation, we observed remarkable improvement in his potassium levels and developmental progress. This case highlights the importance of recognizing Gitelman syndrome in young children with growth and developmental issues, as early treatment can lead to positive outcomes.

Potassium arsenite shows promise for CFS
We investigated the impact of potassium arsenite on chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) in two veterinary professionals. After struggling with CFS despite various treatments, they turned to a low dosage of potassium arsenite for ten days. Remarkably, both experienced a complete remission of their symptoms, and follow-up tests showed a notable improvement, including the disappearance of the bacteria from their blood.

While this suggests a potential link between bacterial infections and CFS, it's important to note that broader implications for treatment require more extensive research. This case prompts intriguing questions about the role of infections and alternative therapies in managing CFS.
