That is a reading that is so low you would likely be unconscious and need emergency hospital treatment. If alert and able to swallow without choking, use a glucose tablet or sugar candy immediately and call 911 if you are diabetic and on oral hypoglycemic medications or insulin.

If you have no symptoms of sweating, shaking, agitation, dizziness or fainting which are common symptoms of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and if you are self-testing, it could only mean that your testing meter needs a battery or your strips are expired. Check those things and recheck your blood sugar, if still low seek urgent medical advice.
