Description
Dyselectrolytemia is an imbalance in the required amount of electrolytes which are calcium, potassium, sodium, magnesium in the blood. The symptoms are vomiting, nausea, fatigue, seizures, headaches etc. This maybe a result of excessive loss of body fluids which may in turn give rise to this disorder.
Objectives
odium, potassium, and chloride are the significant electrolytes along with magnesium, calcium, phosphate, and bicarbonates. Electrolytes come from our food and fluids. These electrolytes can have an imbalance, leading to either high or low levels.
