Huh? Confusedcratch:

I'm saying the doctor was at fault for not properly diagnosing her condition, which led to her cardiac arrest. She had hypokalemia (potassium imbalance) which was a result of her bulimia.

which means she never told him what she was doing. She as much or more at fault for her condition that anyone else.
A routine blood test shows what your potassium level is.

Again... what I'm saying is that the Dr. had failed to diagnose the hypokalemia (potassium imbalance).

-> The hypokalemia wasn't diagnosed. Terri had cardiac arrest. The doctor was sued for malpractice.

The end result was that the doctor was found at fault to the tune of +$1 million. :?

I'm not disagreeing with you, clearly there wre quite a few factors that cause her to get the way she was.
