How can low blood sugar in a diabetic be managed immediately?
Patient: Yes, please help me. My friend just called me from Elko, Nevada. She is driving westbound on interstate 80 with her boyfriend Mike who is diabetic. He is slurring his words and confused and irate. I think his sugar must be dangerously low. They don t have a glucose tester with them. I am trying to find a hospital near where she is driving to call ahead of time. What can I tell her to do for now? Doctor: ask them to take some sweat dish or better they can take some table sugar dissolved in simple water or milk
