Symptom #2: Coma

A coma is an unconscious state where the individual cannot respond to stimuli or be awakened. The person is unable to move, hear, speak, or physically feel sensations. Patients in this state usually score between 3 to 8 on the Glasgow Coma Scale.

Experts believe that a coma is part of the body’s natural response in the healing process by temporarily shutting down and stopping bodily action. In addition to hyponatremia, comas can occur in many conditions such as stroke, intoxication, hypoxia, hypoglycemia, and traumatic head injuries.
