I have had a blood test showing low sodium levels (133mM) in my blood, and I have anxiety which is making me worry about potential kidney failure or other health issues. Additionally, I have been experiencing random chest pains and seeing floaters in my eyes. What should I be concerned about, and what steps should I take?

I was born with a club foot and underwent surgery at one year old. The procedure involved making nicks in the ligament extending towards my knee and stretching the ligament by twisting my foot into position, followed by casting for several months. I led a normal life but had to give up tennis in my forties due to pain. Now, at 70, walking is quite painful, and fusion of the joint has been recommended by four podiatrists. How can I obtain an evaluation of the new European procedure described in an article that involves minimally invasive surgery to open the joint, attach wires to the bones and an external brace, tension the wires to hold the joint open, and allow cartilage to regrow over four months, with the foot being walkable the following day?
