Ron had blood work done last Thursday and it came back showing his sodium levels are too low. We don't know if it was an error so he had more blood work done Saturday morning. At this point we don't know if the surgery will have to be postponed or not. I looked up "low sodium" and it appears to have to do with his electrolites. Because of his dry throat, he does drink a lot of water and because of that, he urinates a lot. Does anyone have any knowledge and/or suggestions on what he can do? He will talk to the Doctor later this afternoon, but wanted to post this to all of you folks too. Any thoughts you can give would be appreciated.

Thanks!
