Hi.. I have a reading of 351 using the freestyle freedom.. What's the number to divide that by to get the correct reading?

Is this the converter you mean? (from mg/dl to mmol/l)

Hi @Berryrose and welcome to the forum. To convert mg/dl to mmol/L you divide by 18.

Try to go to the settings option on the device to change to mmol/L, otherwise you'll have to divide by 18 every time :/

That's a rather high reading. But with carbs reduction, we can quickly bring it under control.
