Sabrina, are you also taking calcium and magnesium? The muscle pain speaks more to insufficient magnesium than potassium to me. Cal / Mag work to help the muscle relax and contract; potassium is more for fatigue. A shortage of magnesium will also impair the function of many other supplements, including potassium.
