Good morning all, I have just come out of hospital after 2 seizures. It turns out my sodium levels were dangerously low because I had been advised to drink 3 litres of water every day. Unfortunately for me I follow a low salt regime which compounded the problem. The water was to try and prevent urine infections. The consequences are having to surrender my driving licence for a period of time. Fortunately my partner drives me most of the time but I would be stumped in an emergency. The doctors give out all this advise but don’t consider the ramifications.
