Hello!
Thank you for the query.
The most probable reason of such symptoms is brain stroke. Especially if this person has diabetes, hypertention, heart arrythmia or is in older age. Dehydration or heart attack can also give such symptoms but usually shortness of breath appears. Liver failure or kidneys failure is also possible.
Hope this will help.
Regards.
