Excess sodium in the blood is very serious and can lead to organ failure and death. The condition is called hypernatremia. People who have kidney failure or who are not getting sufficient water will have it. Symptoms usually are noticeable when severe.Some medications could also affect sodium levels in the blood. Go to Ask.com and look up the term hypernatremia for a complete list of symptoms. As with everything else the degree of any abnormal amt. of sodium in the blood makes a big difference. It's important to talk to the doctor about your lab work. In healthy people the body is pretty awesome in removing too much salt or sodium. Janet RN
