This is a case of beer potomania, which is a very specific case of hypotonic hyponatremia. Humans need solute in order to produce urine. These solutes are predominantly sodium, potassium and urea, along with others.
Beer contains little to no sodium or potassium. Drinking only 50 beers daily for weeks causes solute loss, on top of vitamin deficiency and poor nutrition.
Slowly as sodium is depleted, more volume from beer is accumulated in the body.
Beer contains water, alcohol and carbohydrates, the latter which induces an insulin response in the body to prevent muscle catabolism.
Muscle catabolism could count as protein that would produce urea, but because of insulin response, it doesn't happen, further exacerbating solute loss.
The accumulation of water in the body and depletion of solute leads to chronic hyponatremia. This is because the kidneys need solute exchange in the process of urine production. If these solutes are absent, minimal urine is produced, and the urine that is produced is maximally dilute (eg low specific gravity) Neurologic sequelae from low sodium presence in blood include seizures and is an emergency.
In this patient, it wasn't clear whether he was suffering withdrawal syndrome, chronic hyponatremia, or both. In the case as it happened, the hospital ran out of medicines for the SE because it was so frequent, and needed to borrow twice from neighboring hospitals.
Osmotic demyelination syndrome appears to have a higher risk in patients who have more electrolyte abnormalities and metabolic derangements. Please see references for more information.
These cases are patients who I, or my colleagues have seen. They are de-identified and many instances have been presented in more depth in an academic setting. These videos are not individual medical advice and are for general educational purposes only. I do not give medical advice over the internet, see your own physician in person for that.

    I lost a friend from alcohol withdrawal at 56. He decided he was gonna turn his life around, stopped cold turkey after drinking at least 3 glasses of whiskey a day for 30 years; sometimes more but never less. His brain swelled and he never woke up. He went to sleep on day 3 of sobriety and never woke up. He should have talked to his doctor.

    My father was an alcoholic who smoked cigarettes. He died in 1987 from a combination of cirrhosis of the liver and emphysema. My oldest brother died in 2010 from emphysema (I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy). My other brother died of cirrhosis. They both are deeply missed, but I and my son are the only family members still alive. I quit drinking and smoking 32 years ago, and my son quit smoking a year ago! I'm now 70, and quitting smoking was THE MOST IMPORTANT THING I did for my health in my life.

    I had a friend. After his parents died from a plane crash, he became alcoholic. A year later, his wife divorce him. He drank more and more, until just two years after his divorce, he developed scarring of his liver and died the day after he received dialysis. Most alcoholism derived from psychology. Please take care of your mental health and be honest with yourself that you need love and care from others to get you through your alcoholism before it is too late.

    Well aren't you from a cozy little world to think everyone has someone to love them and can access mental health care. Not all alcoholism is psychological. Most is just immediate gratification of feel good. Just because one uses tragedy as their excuse doesn't mean it applies to everyone else. All drunks have fabulous excuses in their twisted little brains. I know from experience.

    Trebletrouble 13 Germany was transferred to Russia. Upon arrival, Germany was in good spirits, but after a few hours he appeared to be suffering from hypothermia. Hypo meaning low and thermia meaning heat. But how could that be? Well, the freezing Russian winter had started to wreak havoc on Germany’s troops, which were already weak and poorly equipped. His oil froze, and his tanks ceased to function. But despite his critical condition Germany refused treatment. He was adamant about staying in Russia. However as his condition worsened he finally allowed doctors to move him, and he didn’t have much of a choice. Russia was now spreading throughout his body, and something had to be done fast to stop a full blown invasion.

    I started drinking heavily after a severe work injury. Within three months I was drinking 60oz of vodka every night. I quit cold turkey. That’s the second biggest mistake I made (first being allowing myself to fall victim to the bottle) I started throwing up blood, shaking, and went into a state of delirium. It took a full week to start feeling normal. That was back in April. Four months sober at this point. They had me on all kinds of meds to keep me alive. That’s when I learned just how dangerous cold turkey can be. Stay strong anybody that’s dealing with addiction. You aren’t alone

    I drank for almost 10 years, at the end it was almost two large bottles of vodka a day to keep me comatose from the world. When I first tried to slow down without help I went into seizures and doctors didnt believe me when I said I drank a lot and thought it was the withdraws. It took another 3 years of seizures causing broken bones and concessions before I went and got real help. It took two stays for detoxing (I relasped the first time, the pain of being sober and the withdraws drove me insane. Also trying to figure out how to live being sober, its easy being numb.), a stint in rehab and then a sober house but I'll be 4 years sober in Oct. Life has never been better.

I’d be hungry but just wouldn’t find anything that I wanted to eat. I’m super glad it never got as bad as this patient. Always good to know that I made the right choice to seek help and get myself on the right path to health.

    While I've never had anything physical aside from nausea the day after drinking and sometimes SUPER dry and burning eyes, the affects alcohol has on my mental health is insane. I was forced to quit for a short while and within the first week my chronic depression and anxiety were basically eliminated. I went a little over 2 months without a drink and hadn't felt that good mentally or physically since I was a teenager. It's amazing what happens and how fast it happens when we don't treat our bodies like a dumpster. Sadly, I let myself slip back into drinking, but only a couple of nights per week now. Sometimes 3 if I can stomach it. I'm gonna start only allowing myself to drink on Friday nights, though. I film for an upcoming YT channel with my brother and a few friends that day, so it makes sense. At least it would only be once per week while with people instead of 3-5 nights per week while drinking alone at home after the wife goes to bed. Even then, I probably should just stop altogether. I'll probably try and see how a couple of Friday sessions without it goes and go from there.

    Alcohol creates a condition known as “Histotoxic Hypoxia” commonly referred to as “drunk.” Unlike hypoxia from lack of breathable air, histotoxic hypoxia interferes with the uptake of oxygen from the blood to the brain, even though there’s plenty of oxygen in the blood. That’s why the slurred speech of a pilot who has lost cabin pressure at 24,000 feet sounds exactly like someone who has ingested ten shots of liquor down here on earth. Alcohol is one of the few substances that can cause you to become unconscious but still be walking, talking, and even operating machinery such as a vehicle. Commonly referred to as a “blackout.”

    I drank approximately 120 fifths of 100 proof rum in 120 days during a very stressful event in my life and I can testify that drinking such an amount consistently while ignoring my caloric intake can and will cause extreme issues in your biology. I originally began to drink because it allowed me to eat while in a state of extreme stress that i endured for a long period of time which my adrenalin would not allow me to do otherwise. There has to be a point at which you must break the fear that causes yourself to self-destruct. Many prayers going out to those that get stuck in this cycle of self torture.

    I used to drink everyday for half my life and now I don't. I'm 6 years sober. I saw my reflection in the detox.. actually he was my future self reflection. A man in his 50s or 60s that woke up next to me in the detox bed room asked if I could buy him some beer... He didn't even know where he was.. that was going to be me if I didn't stop drinking. I didn't want that life and decided to make the change.. 3/11/17. I haven't had a drink since. If you're struggling and want to quit, please try and reach out... the bottle doesn't have to consume you, and there are people who want to help.

    This video is so scary. It reminds me of when I was hospitalised with starvation ketoacidosis, plus hyponatraemia and hypokalaemia. I had a lot of trouble eating after major GI surgery. I did go to both my surgeon and a dietician, but they completely dismissed my concerns (and I ended up reporting them to the health practitioner registry agency in my country). I don't remember a lot from that time, but I do remember that the effects on my cognitive function were terrifying. They were the first sign, to me, that I was seriously ill. They made it a lot more difficult to advocate for myself, and after my surgeon and dietician both failed me, I couldn't co-ordinate myself enough to find new specialists to see. I quickly became too sick to think straight or care for myself at all. I've been through some really awful things, but that was the worst time in my life. The muscle cramps were unreal, and they progressed to seizures. I also kept constantly gagging and retching, but I didn't have anything to bring up. Eventually, the gagging actually made it impossible for me to even drink water. I also had this awful sense of impending doom. That's what I remember most vividly. Thankfully I'm okay now. It wasn't a complicated case like the one in the video. I still have some trouble eating, and I'm still struggling to recover from the muscle wasting it caused, but I'm alright. I guess the moral of the story is, don't starve yourself for six weeks. Or maybe don't drink fifty beers a day. This is not something you want to experience.

Stayed and detoxed for 5 days, incredibly weak and dizzy. Couldn't sleep for the 5 days there. Recovery was slow but steady. Every Day with out alcohol felt like a victory. Been sober 16 months.

    A man had a stomach ache, this is how his organs shut down.

    This sounds like my younger brother. Unfortunately, nothing I or friends said made a difference. He drank more and more throughout a 10 year period. In 2009, not even a month after his 40th birthday, he got very sick for about a week, before passing away suddenly. He was not only my sibling; but also my best friend. Miss you pally-pal.

    Lost one of my best friends earlier this year to alcoholism. Everyone knew he drank a lot, no one knew it was that much. Things went bad quick. Still hard to believe he's gone.

    As a licensed physician, I feel it is my duty to mention what was missed here. You must not consume more than 45 beers daily. Fifty is entirely unacceptable and we learn this the third day of med school.

    My mom was an alcoholic for many years, but it got really bad in the last few years she was drinking. She would have seizures and at one point, her heart stopped for ten minutes while in the ER. She's incredibly lucky to be here. She's been sober for 4 years now and I'm so proud of her.
