In order to accurately determine the details of the episode, it is necessary to get a blood glucose reading. This will confirm the type of diabetic emergency, whether it is an insulin shock or a high blood sugar reading. Then, if approved by a doctor or an EMS professional, glucose can be administered if it has been determined that it is an insulin shock episode.
