This is far from my field of expertise, but 46 strikes me as well below range of normal. I assume your 56yo friend is under a Physician's care as she is monitoring glucose level. Please have her call her GP, Internist, Endocrinologist and report ther reading. It may be an outlier, but should be evaluated by her Physician.

I had Covid-19, I have Reactive Hypoglycemia, my Hypoglycemia got worse after Covid. I follow Hypoglycemia diet but my sugars are constantly dropping. Does Covid cause more hypoglycemia? How long does it take for glucose levels to be stable again?

What would cause a random (non-fasting) blood glucose level of 59 in a non-diabetic? I had eaten a light lunch 2.5 hours before, and had had some candy and soda about 45 minutes before. Finding was incidental. No symptoms of hypoglycemia; felt fine?
