- A woman affected by type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes miscalculates and injects herself with too much insulin. She soon begins to feel confused and sluggish. She calls for medical assistance and injects herself with the glucagon her doctor prescribed for such an emergency. When an ambulance arrives, she is given dextrose (a sugar) intravenously.
