Salt Imbalance


Diagnosis & Tests

How is the condition diagnosed?

A doctor can diagnose salt imbalance by taking a complete medical history and ordering blood and urine tests. Other tests may be done depending on the person's symptoms.

The doctor may also want to know:

  • What was happening when the symptoms started?
  • Was there any illness before the symptoms began?
  • Was the person exercising or working and sweating a lot?
  • Does anything help the symptoms improve?
  • What makes the symptoms worse?
  • Is there any chest pain, weakness, or dizziness?
  • Is the person taking any medicines?
