It's pretty self explanatory. Your BG dropped substantially during the test, so this would suggest that you should lower your dosage and try again. How much... well you have to make an educate guess. I think you said you take 40units, a rough idea might be to reduce by 2 to 4 units and try again.

By the way, did you wait 4 hours after a meal/bolus before starting the test?
