You are providing care for a 29-year old male who is weak and lethargic. Bystanders tell you that he has been that way since he

went to work an hour ago. They know that he is a diabetic but when you ask about meals or when he last took his insulin, the answers do not make sense. You should give him small amounts of sugar. True or false?

True
