Default Well......MrsD....that blew my mind :)

I have had low sodium problems that started during chemo. I got down to 128 and they told me to use more salt. But.....I am a big drinker of fluids....I always have something to drink with me. I do love my salt.......so am I drinking too much which is causing my sodium loss ?

I'm going to mention Hyponatremia to my new onocologist dr on Tues. Hoping he looks at my feet.......can this just happen ? Even if I was not taking any new meds at the time this started ?

But you made me realize I'm right...I NEED to know what is causing the swelling. My left foot is just throbbing/hurting now.....I took the dog outside, had my feet up some but that's all this morning. I'm just tired......all over really tired.

Thanks for the replys

You know....I also had a bladder mesh thing done when I had my hysterectomy done last Oct...when I went a week later to have the cath removed I was retaining fluid in my bladder......my gyn did an internal ultrasound this past Sept and asked had I "relieved" myself fully and I said yes.....she stated I was retaining quite amount of fluid in my bladder.....wonder if that could have anything to do with this.
