If you're in the US, it means 18 mg/dL, and is an extremely low blood sugar. You are likely to lose consciousness from lack of sugar in your blood. Put sugar in your mouth immediately.

If you're anywhere else, it means 18 mmol/L and is a rather high reading. It is well above the daily target range for any diabetic, and is high enough to cause diabetic complications leading to diabetic deterioration, neuropathy, blindness, and kidney and heart disease.
