If you have had consistant sodium levels of 134 or less, first limit all fluid intake to 1200 ml's per day. Make sure you see a Nephrologist if this is a continuous problem. Hyponatremia (low sodium) can cause unexplained high blood pressure among other things.

How is bypass heart surgery done?
Heart bypass surgery, also known as coronary artery bypass surgery, aims to replace damaged arteries in the heart. A surgeon uses blood vessels from another area of the body to repair the damaged arteries. This surgery is used when the coronary arteries become blocked or damaged. The coronary arteries supply the heart's muscles with oxygenated blood. If they are blocked or the flow of blood is restricted, the heart can't function properly. This can lead to heart failure
