I'ma little confused. I've been self-testing for over a month now, a period which has included the 'difficult' periods of Christmas and the New Year. My average daily morning reading works out at 5.5mmol/L (taken on waking), the average evening post-prandial is 6.6mmol/L and my average of all readings taken works out at 5.9mmol/L. The latter figure would be, according to DiabetesUK, the equivalent of an HbA1c figure of 35mmol/mol.
The figures following samples taken by the practice nurse at my GP's which led to the pre-diabetese warning were fasting 5.7mmol/L and an HbA1c of 43mmol/mol.
Comparing all this to the following table on this website suggests that I have reeled things back in. Or am I reading all this wrong? I'm confused...
