My dad has been diagnosed with GBM4 in January 2006. He is going through chemo treatment right now and taking dexamethason (decadron) as well. Ever since he got diagnosed, we put him on mostly vegetarian diet. We do not use any fat (e.g olive oil) when preparing food for him. He is taking flax seed oil, however, on regular basis. Today he went to his neurologist and she told us that my dad has high sodium levels in his body (his ankles are swallen) and that we should try to decrease it. I have searched the internet but all I could find is "heatlhy diet" which we are already doing. Has anyone out there experienced this? If so, any tips how we could lower it down?
Thanks so much!
