Can Potassium Cause Shaking And Feeling Of Heart Attack?

I took a diet pill, Garcinia Cambogia, and it contains Potassium, which I have a problem with, which made me feel like I was having a heart attack before. Can Potassium give a person the shakes and make a person feel like they are having a heart attack? Do you know of any Garcinia Cambogia without potassium?

Thank for asking to HCM
The potassium is ion that greatly deals with the conduction system of heart, excessive amount of potassium can interfere the conduction system of heart rhythm but may not give heart attack like symptoms, if you have such symptoms then I would advise you to get it examine and never under estimate it, have nice day.
