Hi my Dad had low sodium. That is actually how we found out about his Kidney cancer with mets to the lung. He was acting so confused we took him to the ER and they said his sodium was very low. They put him in ICU for 5 day and ran tests. That is when we found out about the cancer.
Even now with the chemo meds he takes thay watch the sodium with him. It was getting a little low again. they will check him next week and see what to do from there.
Hope all goes well with you and your husband.
