Hi & welcome to the forum @iapetus1

I can’t comment on T3c as I’m T2, but that is an extremely low number - did you retest to check it was correct?
 
T2 here. BG at 1.6 mmol/l is extremely low and I'd expect to be feeling very ill at that sort of level. Individual results can sometimes be very wrong, though, and I always double check anything unusual, high and low.

If a pancreas loses function so that no insulin is being produced you would expect to see high blood glucose rather than low.
