Abstract : Severe hyponatremia, defined as serum sodium <120 mEq/L, is a life-threatening condition that usually results in neurological complications including altered sensorium, seizure episodes and ranges till death. Patients presenting with recurrent episodes of hyponatremia along with hypoglycemia should be evaluated with appropriate investigations to evaluate causes of hyponatremia and hypoglycemia apart from just correcting sodium and glucose value . This might lead to a diagnosis of occult disease.

Keywords : Empty Sella Syndrome, Hypotension, Hypoglycemia, Panhypopituitarism , Abortion, Sheehan’s Syndrome
