I got a 6.0 despite being 62 hours into my 72 hour fast. Was awake a lot last night and got up a few times too. X

It takes time for the liver to get rid of all its stored "energy" once it has gone you will get lower dumps to keep a steady bgl... stay strong! That is a long time but it does take a while depending on how much of a store you have!
