Sodium Blood Tests

Sodium is an essential mineral that helps maintain the balance of fluids in your body and plays a crucial role in nerve and muscle function. This test is commonly ordered to evaluate the overall health of your body and to diagnose certain medical conditions.

If your sodium levels are too high, it may suggest dehydration, kidney problems, or certain medications. On the other hand, low sodium levels can be a sign of excessive fluid intake, hormonal imbalances, or underlying health conditions like kidney or liver disease.
