serum sodium blood test

I have had a blood test done for serum sodium which has come back as 133 mmol/L (133-146), it says acceptable result but my GP has not said anything about it. I have thyroid problems and am wondering if it has anything to do with the thyroid, I know nothing about it myself, any thoughts welcome.

Are you on a low salt diet?

No just eating the same as I always have, the level has gone lower since I was taking carbimazole tablets last year.

Ah, OK. I've no idea if there's a connection because I know very little about carbimazole, being hypo. But perhaps if you write a new post, with a title something like: Does Carbimazole Reduce Sodium Levels, you might attract the attention of those that do take it and know about what it does. :)
