Pessimist: the cup is half empty
The nephrologist: It's only half a cup? We can dialyze that off, no problem.

Maybe we should rethink our correction protocol for hyponatremia :-)
Honey, stop what you're doing, new hyponatremia research just dropped!

seems to be a discussion about PO4 in dialysis over on the other site (since tenapanor in bundle)
