My party is currently coming out of the Sphere in the Slums.  I had just finished the Sphere quest and brought Lavok out to see the sky before he dies and it autosaved.  I also did a quick-save, because that's simply what I do most of the time.  I entered the Sphere again to talk to the Knights of Solomon and I talked to the leader of the three.  Upon concluding that conversation, I wanted to talk to the other two Knights, but they started walking away.  So, I reloaded from the autosave so that I could talk to the other two Knights first.  Unfortunately, for some reason, when I reloaded the game it showed the grayed out version of the screen that comes about when your main character dies.  It then brought me to the Load or Quit screen.  I thought that was odd, so I reloaded from the Quick Save.  The same thing happened.  Now, I'm wondering why.  

I had no obvious ailments or status effects on.  Everyone in my party was low on health, around 10-20 health left from each, but no one was poisoned or dying.  This happened earlier in the Sphere when I reloaded from a quick save immediately after fighting the halfings in the furnace area.  Fortunately, my main game save was only a few moments before that point in time.  But now, my main game save was made 40-45 minutes ago or so and I was rather pleased with how everything worked out and it would be irritating to have to do it all over again.

Any advice or solutions would be welcome.

Thank you.

...

What items does the main character have equipped? The +10 % Hit Point items have this effect on reload.

Ah, he has the hand of some monster equipped to his ring slot that reduces his constitution by a certain amount.  My character is an Inquisitor and I have Keldorn int he party so we use a lot of Dispel Magic which restores my main character's Con whilst getting rid of the AC bonus.  When I reload the con penalty probably reinstates itself thus reducing his HP to negative levels.

Thank you for the advice.
