I have to go back to the hospital whenever they write me a letter to come back, because I have to have a blood test, then an injection and then another blood test??? Does anyone know what this is for? They said something about low or high salt, and is this all in one day? Kinda scared. They said it could be the cause for my stomach pains. So does anyone know what it's for and what the condition is called and the symptoms? She said that some diabetics have it and it's common among diabetics?
 
I really don't know, unless it's something to do with low serum sodium, which isn't actually too much of a problem if your serum potassium level is ok - but I've no idea whatever about the test and how long you have to wait between things. Why don't you ring the hospital and ask them for more details? That's what I would do, cos whatever it's for they clearly haven't explained it very well, have they!
