Permalink Reply by EndocrineGremlin on April 2, 2013 at 7:09am I'm British so I just get 'High' or 'Low'. I think my meter goes as high as 33 and as low as 1.1 so I've been above/below that but I can't really be sure. It would sure be interesting to know.

Low : 20-something

Low - 12 (still coherent, but had a hard time seeing to take my test)
Have never needed an ER or passed out (knock on wood).

Low... 28.. yes things got a little blurry at this point...

low = 27 and I was running.

Low 16, Not feeling a thing, I was later told this number occurred

low: 25
Permalink Reply by Nyadach on April 3, 2013 at 12:49am No idea on high as over 540 it goes HI, but it's been up there.
Low wise was 16 after a bike ride...so a tad low :P

Permalink Reply by Prince on April 3, 2013 at 6:57pm HIGH: 444 (When I was diagnosed three years ago!).
LOW: All the meter said was "Low" and I was shaking and sweating...I ran and got some glucose tabs really fast. The lowest the meter did actually read was 25!
