Hello,
If you are a friend or a cousin has heart problems, and has Hodgkin's disease usually they are not related, and I cannot tell you the treatment for heart troubles unless you tell me the exact diagnosis. Some inflammation in the heart can be cured by treating Hodgkin's disease which is curable by radiation therapy.
High potassium is a temporary condition and should be treated when it is present, but if it is a constant problem, you should look into checking your kidney problems, and also if you want to have a low potassium diet it should be avoiding tomatoes, and oranges banana and even apples.
Pimples may be related to HIV if you have the diagnosis first you have to have the diagnosis established by your physician if you do not have HIV, then it can be either skin infections.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Amrit Singh
