Can anybody send me a blood sugar chart converter please

Convert what to what?

Like in mmol/L to mg/dL or vice versa?

Is this of use? Top 2 rows are hba1c in mmol/mol (UK) and % (US).
Bottom rows are the corresponding average blood sugars in mg/dl (US) and mmol/l (UK).

Both measurements are used in other countries as well of course.

I usually do a google search foe mmol/l to mg/dl and google comes up with plenty of charts.
You can also use this converter on our main website: https://www.diabetes.co.uk/blood-sugar-converter.html

You can try this:
If you convert mg/dL to mmol/L just multiply the number by 0.0555 and if you want the opposite just divide the one with the mmol/L by the 0.0555 to convert it into mg/dL

Never seen that chart before thanks for posting.My initial HbA1c of 121 looks even worse seeing that? Very sobering.

121 mg/dL?

 

[Antje77]

121 mg/dL?

No, hba1c is in either mmol/mol or %. This one is in mmol/mol.
mg/dl is for blood glucose.

 

[Craigmartin]

Yes they told me 121 which converted to 18.3ish in meter terms.

 

[Craigmartin]

The mg/dl numbers were not mentioned at surgery and presumed were US measurements? That chart is the most easy to understand I've seen so far. Very helpful

Woah then that's really high.

Wait i think you mean to say mmol/L and not mmol/mol. Though i think mmol/L and mg/dL are both unit of measures for blood glucose, It's the same case for pounds and kilograms different units of measure but they are both for measuring the weight of something. Just correct me if I'm wrong

Hba1c's are measured in mmol/mol 's or percentages. Hba1c being the average of about 3 months of blood sugars. Mmol/l and mg/dl are two different ways to measure blood glucose by finger prick, what they are right at that moment. (One used mainly in europe/uk, the other in the us)

Have a look at post #4 above - it shows how the different units relate to each other.

We actually use mmol/L in our country for our Hba1c. Guess it's different for everyone

Oh my goshhh. My mistakee sorryy for the misunderstanding.

Hahaha guess you are right.
