[QUOTE="PseudoBob77, post: 913352, member: 198770"] So my last Hba1c at the hospital was 5.8%. My forecast was 5.93% with an average BS of 6.877mmol over 90 days. Divide 6.877 by 1.583 then add on 1.583 as a formula. This is based on 354 tests. Some meters would be more accurate than others from what I found out using the TrueYou Mini which tells me that my blood sugar is about 15% lower than it actually is. There may be variants in blood cell life cycles and other factors that show deviations. But if Hba1c is the industry standard then i'd adjust for it if possible depending on what the error rate of blood tests taken at home is. I have over 8500 blood test results on my computer and statistically disected it. I've closely forecast my Hba1c in the last 6 years since analysing on Excel. I've been type 1 for over 26 years and computerising my results from an analysis background has improved my control. But that works for me, everyone needs to find the right tool i guess and a lot of self exucation. [/QUOTE]
