What should you do if a person with diabetes is unable to consume sugar?

When a person with diabetes is unable to consume sugar and is experiencing hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), calling Emergency Medical Services (EMS) is crucial if their condition does not improve quickly or if they are unable to consume any sugar. The body needs a source of glucose to stabilize blood sugar levels, and if the person cannot take in sugar orally—due to unconsciousness, confusion, or severe symptoms—immediate professional medical assistance is necessary.

If action is not taken promptly, the person's health can deteriorate rapidly, leading to more severe complications such as seizures or loss of consciousness. Therefore, calling EMS ensures that the person receives the appropriate care and interventions, such as intravenous glucose, which can stabilize their condition effectively.

The other options, while having some merit in different contexts, would not be appropriate responses in a scenario where immediate medical intervention is required.
