Melody's hubby had low numbers like that.

It can mean the test was poorly done...not measured right.

Or you have high insulin levels that just gobbled up the sugar.
Only two readings cannot tell you anything except if you are seriously diabetic.
here are some charts showing various types of results:

Hypoglycemia precedes diabetes by years. Often doctors are not trained to evaluate low numbers. They only respond to high ones.

A fasting INSULIN level will tell more. If elevated, you are pre-diabetic.
