I have a "GlucoNavii Standard" BGM from Amazon (the £15.99 kit one) which shows a reading in mmol/L.
I've found a HBa1c conversion chart that shows various heading %, mmol/mol, mmol/l.
I'm assuming my BGM is showing reading in mmol/l ie the last in the list above. I just want to know I'm reading the correct information.
Most of my readings are mid-five to mid-seven but my morning reading are consistently & noticeably higher.... yesterday was 8.8 and this morning 10.4 (eeeek!) both before breakfast.
I normally have a small breakfast (yoghurt & blueberries) then a small light sandwich at lunch BUT then have my main meal of the day at around 6pm which is diabetic friendly in terms of ingredients but it equates to about 80% of my daily calorie intake. Is this what's likely to be giving me such high morning fasting readings?
Any thoughts/advice appreciated!
