she does it everyday. she has her own machine. can you please give me some advice? is there anything i can do? she literally has 1% kidney function.I didn't catch that your mom is on dialysis early, no wonder her sodium levels are low. Changing things to normal are much harder when the blood is being filtered out several times a week. Before my wife passed she was also on dialysis and she had problems keeping certain nutrient levels in their proper ranges.
