My cousin has diabetes.  She has to keep track of both times when she is high and times when she is low. So you might be having a "crash" as she calls it.

I'd talk to your doctor  that is low do you get shaky during the day? That is a sign that you do not have enough sugar in your body maybe eat a banana or some fruits check again.... but definitely call your doctor
