Ckd-3 last labs -potassium 3.3, na-130, chloride-109, protein 9.0 but bun-16...slight dehydration?dr. said is ok but i have concerns-have foot cramps
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See answer below: There are many causes of foot cramps including dehydration, mineral deficiencies (potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium), and Vit D deficiency. Certainly both your sodium and potassium levels are low and your fairly normal BUN and low sodium would not be consistent with significant dehydration. Further evaluation, testing, and a trial of correction of any mineral deficiencies would be prudent.
