For those who are looking for the rest in this lecture series: Med cram has made it private on YouTube so you have to pay $19 to access it on their website.... If this course is paid, can you please put that in the video? So that the people who want to pay can watch this and those that do not don't have to watch half a video?

I'm a person who has had Hyponatremia low sodium deficiency since I was an infant. In result to this I have a kidney dysfunction. If I drink too much water or potassium I go into seizures and my sodium levels drop.

Nice video! Great overview of the physiology! I have a video on hyponatremia that might complement yours! It's a practical approach to hyponatremia in the clinic. It'd be great to hear some feedback! Keep up the good work sir!
