You first call 911. They you lie them down. Loosen any restrictive clothing, monitor their breathing and pulse. keep them warm with a blanket. Raise their feet 10 inches off the ground, above their head. Keep giving them reassuring thoughts such as 'It's okay' even if they are unconscious.

Should you give someone suffering from insulin shock candy?

Yes! If a person is in shock from lack of glucose (sugar), waiting wont do any good. If the person is in shock, however, he/she won't likely be conscious. DO NOT put hard objects like candy in an unconscious person, as this fall into and block an air pathway, and kill the person. So, rub sugar (or another sweet powder) in the mouth for the person to get the needed glucose. If something like candy falls down a person's air pathway (miraculously doesn't get stuck) and falls into a lung... the person might need an operation to get it back out.
