Coughing fit signals SIADH in patient with low sodium
Dear Dr Roach explains that a prolonged coughing episode after a feast may indicate the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone. SIADH causes water retention and very low sodium, risking confusion seizures or coma. Recommend free water restriction and evaluation for triggers like aspiration, brain or lung issues, hormones, or drugs. A CT scan and hormone tests may be used to identify causes.
