Insulin reduces the body's blood sugar levels and provides cells with glucose for energy by helping cells absorb glucose. When blood sugar levels are too low, the pancreas releases glucagon. Glucagon instructs the liver to release stored glucose, which causes the body's blood sugar levels to rise.
The pancreas regulate blood glucose by releasing insulin and glucagon.
One should check blood glucose levels ideally twice a day but even checking once a day can help monitor diabetes.
The problem is that 66mg/dl post prandial test suggests low blood sugar levels. One should contact a doctor immediately to avoid further complications.
