What Causes Elevated Vitamin E Levels And Low Potassium Levels?

I have elevated Vitamin E levels and my Potassium levels keep crashing. Can anyone point to something that could be the cause? I have Crohn's disease as well as other bowel problems and several autoimmune issues going on. I have always had loose stools so that isn't new and my Crohns is in remission. Please help. I'm taking potassium 20 meq once per day and watching my diet. Have been to the ER twice now in two weeks plus dr for follow up but no one seems to be able to point to anything as to cause. Give me some ideas please.
