How can I treat hyponatremia (low sodium in blood) whn I can’t have salt because I have high blood pressure?

I have high blood pressure so the Dr. (I use the term loosely) told me NO SALT because of high blood pressure. The symptoms are horrific and I’m in pain. I hate hospitals. I don’t understand how I cant have 1 but I have to have another. Somebody has to know.Please Help!

Common table salt is sodium chloride and that is bad for high BP.

Perhaps instead of inorganic sodium (table salt) you could have organic sodium foods.

eat preservatives? the more processed the food, the higher the sodium content is likely to be.
also try these
tomato soup, bacon, smoked salmon, salami, cornflakes, pretzels, hard cheese, tortilla and potato chips
