I had never heard of low potassium levels causing problems?  
i did not even know it was an electrolyte.  
i guess a level of ~1.2 is EXTREMELY low.

I’ve gotten some crazy spasms in my calves from a low potassium level.

Kind of funny, I got a massive spasm in my calf when watching film in highschool football, and my coach ran to his office got a couple bananas and had me eat them and put them under my tongue and the spasm went away!
