A member asked:
What do you do if an insulin-dependent diabetic person complains of pain and becomes pale and sweaty?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Diabetes: If you have type 1 diabetes you are diabetic. If you have type 2 diabetes you should work hard to get rid of diabetes with proper diet and exercise. Yes it can and does happen if you work hard enough at it. What is your blood sugar when you are pale and sweaty? If it is below 60 or 70, cut down your insulin by 5% If that is not enough cut done by 10%.
