My brother-in-law's mom had a serious head
injury. She was in the hospital for
about a month, and now she's in an
assisted living facility. She is unable
to maintain regular sodium levels and is
being given sodium twice a day.
I'm wondering if the facility should look
into other possible causes for this other
than the head injury - and will the
problem correct itself if the head injury
is the cause?
