Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 1, January 2025.ABSTRACT Severe hypokalemia can primarily present as a weakness of the limbs, without any other clinical manifestation. A life‐threatening level of decreased serum potassium level can be unusually present with isolated weakness of the limbs and might be misdiagnosed, or the diagnosis may be delayed.
