<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.Hi, in 2007 I was very ill with postnatal psychosis after the birth of my child. I did loads of odd things my mom tok care of my baby as i was too ill. However, in thinking I had evl spirits in me I proceeded to swallow about 10 tablespoons of salt, washed down with water. I threw some up. After this, I got totally worse, really confused, hallucinations. I did not get medical help. I also began suffering pancreatic problems. Could the extra confusion plus pancreatic prob be linked to salt intake? thanks  <response>: Hi there, thanks for asking. High salt intake can lead to confusion which is transient. It cannot cause pancreas problem. Post nasal psychosis is a problem that the person should be treated properly after. It can cause to depression in long term. Women who experience one episode of post-natal psychosis, should know that they may have another episode in the future pregnancy. It is good to have a visit with your psychiatrist when you have time. I wish you a good health.
