Question

You've just attended a football game with your friend Kaylee, who has Type I diabetes mellitus. Though Kaylee drank only one beer during the game, she is having trouble walking straight, her speech is slurred, and she is not making sense. What is the most likely explanation for Kaylee's current behavior, and how could you help her?

Answer 1

Answer:

Kaylee is experiencing a hypoglycemic condition and you can help her by offering some sugary food or drink.

Explanation:

People with diabetes, such as Kaylee, need to reduce their sugar intake to the maximum, but because of their low sugar intake, they may experience hypoglycemia.

I could sum it up this way: Hypoglycemia is a dizzying drop in blood sugar. When this occurs, symptoms such as dizziness, pallor and mental confusion arise. As you can see from the question above, Kaylee is having motor difficulties and trouble forming coherent sentences due to the mental confusion and dizziness caused by hypoglycemia.

To help Kaylee, you need to help her increase her blood sugar levels by offering sugary foods and drinks.
