Healthy 33 yr old male and recently got blood work for a routine physical. lab called and said my blood sugar was low at 39, what could this be?

Fasting? on insulin?: This is a very low blood sugar, even if fasting. If diabetic on insulin, you would need to eat or have orange juice immediately. You need to check in with your doctor about this, to see what it means in your overall health.
