Have Low Thyroid Levels, Low Sodium Levels. Taking Thyroid Medicine. Had Thyroid Removed Due To Throat Tumor

I have a medical doctor and he is on vacation until monday August 5. His nurse said my thyroid is real low and I have been on thyroid medicine since 2009. I had elected to have my thyroid removed due to a Tumor that came out in front of my throat. It did come back as cancer and after other tests, cancer had not spread. Now my sodium level is low due to electrolytes not being able to carry sodium through bloodstream properly.
