@ljmontgo I’m so sorry you had such a frightening experience. Amazing how our bodies can get so out of whack. In your case it may have been the low sodium which was the triggering event. Having low sodium can have an serious impact on your body’s normal function. The fact that you were so weak shows the level of the disruption from being too low.

Were you given any idea why your sodium is so low? Did your doctor recommend the salt pills?
I’m only asking because when the sodium level in a body is low, often other key elements such as potassium and magnesium are affected. Replacing electrolytes in a balanced formula such a Pedialyte or Gatorade is preferable...it is possible to go too far in the other direction. ☺️

On a personal note, because of meds I’m on, I have to drink at least 64 oz of water daily to keep my kidneys and liver happy. So my blood is monitored all the time to make sure I’m not flushing too much of the electrolytes down the drain and I do have to take daily magnesium supplements. 😂

Yes, please keep in touch with your results. This is a wonderfully supportive community with members supporting members. The experiences you share will benefit others.

Wishing you good health. Lori.
