    Exercise after eating and before checking blood

    Does doing exercise before checking blood levels adversely affect the reading as tested the theory twice now and it seems to. Would normally be between 4 - 5.5 after 2 hrs eating but doing exercise bike for 15 mins then checking levels at 2 hrs it is 3.6 which is real low for me.
