As a mild type-2 I would have that BG looked at. A level of 3.3 is well into "hypo" territory that could cause loss of consciousness in its own right. Anything below 4 should have you reaching for a mars bar before you fall over - in my case I over-did it in the hotel gym and collapsed to semi-consciousness but was just coherent enough to get them to find me something sweet. Half a stick of "Twirl" chocolate acted like a shot of adrenaline and had me fully back to normal in less than two minutes. Before the chocolate my BG was 3.6 (using my finger-stick tester).
