Don't treat numbers: Serum sodium of 127, a "left shift", and a reticulocyte index of 2.1 are all worrisome. This isn't the place to try to diagnose disease with only labs; labs mean nothing in isolation. This is anything from serious disease to a runner who drank a whole lot of water. These are items you should discuss with your physician, who's familiar with your entire medical history.
