    Hi FF,

    Not medical advice so make of it what you will. You are short of both Sodium and Chloride probably because your fluid throughput has changed due to the meds but your salts intake hasn’t. A bit of extra Sea Salt or Himalayan Salt sprinkled on your food or in your cooking during treatment will likely do the trick. ;)

    LFTs look great though! :+1:

    Your Sodium is not worryingly low. Your urea is low (which is harmless) but indicates you have been drinking a lot. Dehydrated, high urea. Lots of fluid, low urea.

    Gaj’s suggestion about having a bit of salt will work, or drink a bit less.


    YMMV

    Thanks :)
    Feeling good this morning…can’t wait to see the viral load result!
    Will start making natural electrolyte drink with Himalayan salt and cut down on the fluids a bit.
    As a side note I used the trick of putting my address on the blood form and got them delivered to my door.

    Use sports drinks. They have sodium and potassium.

    Yuck. I don’t do those chemical concoctions.
    The Himalayan salt in water did the job, and the only downside was I got a bit addicted to it.
    Had to force myself to stop in the end.
