Blood sugar 67 mg/dL
67 mg/dL is below the normal range in any context, and worth treating as a low.
Where 67 sits
If this was a fasting reading
LowFasting or not, 67 mg/dL is 3 mg/dL below the bottom of the normal fasting range of 70 to 99 mg/dL, and reads as a low.
If this was after a meal
LowEven after a meal, 67 mg/dL is below 70 mg/dL and reads as a low rather than a normal post-meal dip.
Across the day
Against the common tracking band of 70 to 180 mg/dL, 67 mg/dL sits 3 mg/dL below the bottom.
What to do next
One reading is a data point. The useful question is whether 67 mg/dL is your usual or an outlier, and only a short run of readings can answer that: check at the same times for a week and look at the pattern, not any single number.
If fasting numbers keep landing high, start with how to lower fasting blood sugar. If meals are the pattern, see after-meal blood sugar spikes.

General information, not medical advice. Reference ranges follow the ADA diagnostic criteria; a single meter reading is not a diagnosis, which requires laboratory testing, usually confirmed on two occasions. See how we calculate.
Stop looking numbers up one at a time
A page can tell you what a reading means in general. Your own log tells you what it means for you: log a reading in seconds and SteadyRange shows your time in range, estimated A1C, and the patterns behind them, on a private log you control.
