Hi, Paula, I have had low blood sodium. Was diagnosed when I went into the
Emergency Room with digestive problems. Took 4 days of intravenous
treatment to bring it up in the normal range. It was in the 20'. I still
eat what seems like a lot of salt. It hasn't been retested in awhile, but
the last times it was in the low 30's like yours. It is hard for me to
separate what symptoms at that time in 2005 came from my usual digestive
problems or specifically from the low salt. What I would like to know is
what really causes me to have low sodium. How am I going to know if I am
eating so much salt that it may harm my heart and at what point this could
happen. I can't go getting my blood tested on a regular basis, at least I
don't think I can. Ruth

Subject: CS>low sodium on blood test
Date: Tue, 3 Apr 2007 12:30:48 -0400
Does anyone know the significance of having low sodium on a blood test? It
is only slightly below normal. 134 with normal range being 135-148. I have
had this reading on my last several blood tests. It is not from abstaining
from salt or doing a lot of sweating. I am wondering if it couldn't
indicate an adrenal insuffciency or other problem?
Thanks,
Paula
