The Diagnosis section is written too much like an instruction manual. I don't think the average reader will be tempted to treat the illness if they see the symptoms; I would hope they'd call for more professional help. [[User:Mavrisa|Mavrisa]] ([[User talk:Mavrisa|talk]]) 21:17, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

I have removed the sentence " When in doubt, treat hypovolemia aggressively" as there is a wealth of research saying that aggressive treatment of hypovolemia aimed at restoring pre-insult blood pressures can be very damaging[1].
