How low is too low for your blood sugar?

If your sugar hits 70-80 between meals you might start feeling the effects of low blood sugar but it technically isn't considered low until 60.  For me I start feeling sick under 80. My doctor told me to eat something small to raise it slightly and it really helps.  But yes 60 is when it is low. 70-90 is normal for fasting like in the morning before breakfast.
