perhaps, let us find out! So, a co-worker today told me his a diabetic and said if he going into (shock? not sure) that his glucose was in his bag

What exactly am I supposed to DO if this happens. I mean, I know where his glucose is, but do I needle it to the chest like Pulp Fiction, or.....?

He wasn't very specific.

Responses:

step one: take his cash. step two: get him to drink or eat something with carbs if possible. step three: deny that you stole his money -- nm - dogbert183 Nov 3, 10:05 1
- wait a second, is he saying he keeps a glucose syringe? -- nm - dogbert183 Nov 3, 10:06
ask him? it could be highly concentrated stuff that he has to eat, or it could be an injection. no idea where. butt cheek? i think my mom's - kare Nov 3, 09:57
I'm pretty sure that means butt sex is optional at that point. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 3, 09:56
Inject into thigh, I believe. -- (link) - mara Nov 3, 09:55 4
- Do you think I could put the needle throw his pants? - ty97 Nov 3, 09:57 3
  - Hmmm. I think I'm going to go with "ask him" at this point. -- nm - mara Nov 3, 09:59 1
    - "So, do I have to remove your pants in order to give it to you in the butt?" -- nm - kilboooo Nov 3, 10:01
  - sure, why not? (I have no clue) -- nm - loosilu Nov 3, 09:58
I thought they just drank something sweet like OJ or apple juice, but maybe an actual db should answer -- nm - zeitgeist Nov 3, 09:55 1
- depends on the level of the reaction. - kare Nov 3, 10:00
why not ask him for more details? -- nm - zork Nov 3, 09:54 1
- Indeed, I think this is one where TT shouldn't play doctor. (nm) - musubi Nov 3, 09:57

Cram a snickers in his mouth. -- nm - Spawn Nov 3, 09:54 4
- wouldn't that just increase his sugar level and cause more problems? -- nm - tRuMaN Nov 3, 09:55 3
  - if he's got glucose, it's low blood sugar he's concerned about. it's called insulin shock. -- (link) - kare Nov 3, 10:02
  - Diabetics have trouble regulating blood sugar levels both ways. - psilotum Nov 3, 09:57 1
    - I know. -- nm - tRuMaN Nov 3, 10:00
