The blood pH level will drop. The normal blood is usually 7.35 to 7.45. There are some people whose blood pH level will drop to below 7.35. One of the causes is the inability to exhale carbon dioxide. When the blood pH level continues to drop until it reaches the acidity level of 7.0, this is already fatal.

There are different symptoms that people may begin to feel when their blood pH level is too low. They may start feeling confused, sleepy, and they may generally begin to deteriorate. People who are experiencing this should get themselves treated immediately; otherwise, the body may fail further.
