Question 2

You are assessing a young male patient who was found in an alley by sanitation workers. Assessment reveals the patient to respond to painful stimuli by opening his eyes, but then closes them once you stop pinching the muscles on his neck. His airway is open and his breathing is shallow. His skin is cool and diaphoretic and his pupils are constricted and do not react to light. Based on these assessment findings, the EMT would be suspicious of:
 
  A) stroke or hypoglycemia.
  B) narcotic overdose.
