Hi
Sodium or any electrolyte for that matter is in dynamic equilibrium with blood level and cell level.. There can be fluctuations, it can also depend on the lab you did, time you did etc.
unless you have specific symptoms related unlikely you need to be worried.
PS- Even feeling nauseous can drop your sodium.
