You sure?: That's way too low! Are you on insulin? Or any anti diabetic meds? Needs adjustment. Never skip a meal. Keep candy handy to consume when symptoms of hypoglycemia

Hypoglycemia: In general if your blood glucose was 9 you would not be conscious, however if for some reason you were, then you would need to drink a sugar fortified drink and of course avoid using your diabetes medicines until blood sugars are stable

Units?: What are the units of measurement you are using? If it is in mg/dL (common in the USA), then it would be extremely low and you would be unconscious. If it is in mmol/L (more likely in this case), then your blood sugar is elevated. If you checked it after a large meal, it is only mildly elevated. If you were fasting, it is significantly high. Either way, get seen by a doc for further tests.
