Hi,

I think you have run into electrolyte imbalance (which is often a result of medications for COPD- exact medications not mentioned in your message). I would recommend testing your electrolytes and CPK.

Meanwhile, watch your fluid intake and correction of electrolyte imbalance after the reports is recommended. Let us know the reports for further suggestions.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
