A member asked:

Can a slightly low sodium level cause symptoms such as fatigue and anxiety?

Dr. David Krulak answered

Specializes in Family Medicine

Hyponatremia: Hyponatremia is associated with fatigue, however, not usually with anxiety. That being said, a level of sodium just below normal may not be sufficient to cause clinical symptoms of fatigue. Recommend seeing your doctor for furthe evaluation.
