[QUOTE="Type1Bri, post: 1045535, member: 129246"] In diabetes there are 2 sets of numbers, the hba1c numbers, which are also shown by some as a % and his blood meter numbers shown in mmol. This website has a conversation tool, just google hba1c converter. Your husbands reading of 148 is equivalent to 15% or a blood meter reading of 22.8 mmol, which is high. Having said that it would be high as he has been undiagnosed for a while, it will come down. I had similar figures when I was diagnosed, now 18 months later I am in control and my figure are 42 or 6.3% and my blood meter is normally at around the 5.8 mark. Your husband will get this under control, be patient as it does take time and dedication to acheive [/QUOTE]
