Fluid restriction would be very important (so as not to wash out even more sodium). However, it would be even more important to go immediately to the nearest emergency department of a hospital - for stabilization and admission. You should be driven there (not drive yourself) by a trusted family member or friend, or have an ambulance called.
A sodium level of 120 is considered an emergency. Seizures, coma and even death could occur, if untreated, due to the possibility of the sodium level going even lower.
A sodium level of 120 is considered to be severe hyponatremia. (Normal levels are in the 135-145 range.)
Is sodium level in blood 129 dangerous
nope
This will depend on the cause of such a low sodium level. Basically speaking, though, you can increase your sodium intake to raise your sodium level. However, if your sodium level is that low due to fluid overload, then taking care of the fluid overload problem would likely return your sodium levels to a more normal level.
yes
the body regulates sodium level by adding water to blood in circulation, that contibutes to increasing blood pressure.
sodium level in the body is controlled by a hormone called aldosterone which is made by adrenal glands small amount of sodium also loss by sweating.
120/80 mmHg
The level of sodium in the blood is primarily regulated by the secretion of aldosterone, a hormone produced by the adrenal glands. Aldosterone promotes sodium reabsorption in the kidneys, which helps maintain blood pressure and fluid balance. Additionally, the hormone atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) can counteract aldosterone's effects by promoting sodium excretion when blood volume is too high.
120 is a very low number for sodium, and may result in seizure activity. The normal range for sodium is 135 to 145 mEq/L (millequivelents per liter.) Just to add to this, my sodium is 122 and my doctor said that this is very near critical. If you have a blood sodium level at 120 your doctor should be taking steps to correct it and find the cause.
One of the best ways to lower your blood level is to reduce your sodium intake.Studies have shown that reducing the amount sodium in your diet can lower your blood pressure.
The term for high blood sodium level is hypernatremia.
The pH level of blood is typically around 7.35 to 7.45. Salt, or sodium chloride, does not typically impact the pH level of blood significantly when consumed in normal amounts.
