10 Symptoms of Hypocalcemia
Symptom #4: Confusion
Confusion refers to the state where one is bewildered or unclear about their situation. In medicine, confusion is a term that may sometimes be used interchangeably with delirium which refers to the loss of orientation. This occurs when the patient is unable to place themselves correctly in the correct location, time, and identity.
Confusion can be associated with memory loss and the loss of linear thinking. Causes of confusion include dementia, brain tumor, concussion, dehydration, depression, brain injury, hypoglycemia, renal failure, hypothyroidism, hypocalcemia, and more.
