Answer:

True

Explanation:

Hypoglycemia is a common emergency in diabetic patients and the symptoms such as being weak and lethargic is more of hypoglycaemic symptoms. Other symptoms include headacd, dizziness, sweating, tremors, agitation, confusion etc.

Ideally a random blood sugar test should be done to know the glucose level but giving a small amount of glucose, if it is hypoglycemia the patient state will improve immediately. And also the small amount of glucose will be beneficial if it is hypoglycemia and will not cause harm if it is not.
