What Are The Side Effects Of Low Sodium?
My dad was diagnosed with low sodium. What are the side effects of low sodium? He is having 2-4 episodes daily. He gets shaky and dizzy for a few seconds; sometimes, it s when he stands up and sometimes when he is sitting or walking. Could that be a result of the low sodium? His sodium is 3 points lower then normal.
