Low Blood Glucose Readings
If your blood glucose is below 20 mg/dL, you will receive a "Lo." Repeat
the test with a new test strip. If this message shows again, contact your
healthcare professional immediately!
Contact your physician for advice if test results are very low (below 70
mg/dL) and/or you have symptoms of low blood glucose. Symptoms of
low blood glucose include sweating, shakiness, trembling, blurred vision,
hunger, headache, confusion, rapid heartbeat, or tingling or numbness
around the mouth or fingertips. Symptoms will vary person to person. You
may have one or all of these symptoms.

Complications Trial (DCCT). It found that good blood glucose control can
