She's being admitted....

My grandma is now being admitted to the hospital. Not sure for how long this time. The only thing I know is her sodium is really low. Luckily my uncle will come stay with my grandpa until she's able to come home. Just thought I'd update for those who wanted to know...

Sorry to hear.I hope she gets better soon.Ensure she has a blood pressure machine at home so you can monitor if her blood pressure gets too low.

I hope your grandma is home soon. My sister had low sodium and she came home in two or three days. They gave her a saline solution and told her to eat a little extra salt when she went home.

@MommyOfEli2013 My sister uses salt too, but evidently not enough.

I hope she will too. I think she'll be there that long probably. The thing is, she salts everything she eats as it is!

@RubyHawk I always was surprised when they tested my blood that my salt was always normal though I thought I used a lot. But yes, guess just salting food is not enough

@JimBo452020 Oh she will, just the question is how soon. That is true. I used to work at the hospital, in the kitchen...and had to deal with the elderly patients food.
