People with diabetes often seem intoxicated. If you have never seen it before you would never know. The first time I saw it a veteran officer locked up a guy who was having problems with his diabetes. The guy seemed extremely drunk. Here he just had low blood sugar. He was in our holding cell for about an hour and we all thought he was smashed.

This type of situation is exactly why people with medical conditions like diabetes should wear medic alert bracelets.

VERY GOOD POINT on the need for medic alert bracelets. It seems like they were used more commonly years ago. Have not seen one in years.
