If you were a 3.4 then you were hypo. It's worth talking to your healthcare team about treating hypos but most would probably reccommend something faster acting to treat a hypo, like fruit juice, jelly babies, Gluck tabs etc. Are you keeping a record of your readings? It could be useful to spot any patterns etc.

Other than the hypo though those are great numbers, well done!
