[|Human|] My mother is in a coma and the doctors can not determine the cause. She is a diabetic with a history of high blood pressure. She was having shortness of breath the day she went into the coma She was rush to the ER and fluid was on her lungs and her blood pressure was very high. The Dr told me she flatlined twice. The machine is doing all the breathing for her. She was taking off of sedatives to if she would respond.however is still in a coma. I am hopeful she will come out of the coma. Any feedback would be helpful.
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Yes, diabetes and uncontrolled hypertension can cause coma. High blood sugar level can cause diabetic coma due to solar edema in brain. Uncontrolled hypertension can cause brain hemorrhage and coma. In your mothers case, hypoxic brain damage is another cause. She was having flat line twice. This means that her heart stopped twice. This might cause reduced blood supply to brain and hypoxic damage. To rule out all these possibilities, get done MRI brain and CSF (cerebra spinal fluid) analysis. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your mother. Thanks.
