The formula to convert A1C to "estimated average glucose" (or eAG) number" came from this webpage: The author (Tara Dairman) recommended going to: www.diabetes.org/ag to use a simple conversion window. The governing equation is;
28.7 x HbA1c - 46.7 = eAG (in mg/dl)
There are interesting articles about this, articles well worth reading. This method definitely has it's critics!

A1C to eAG
I read an interesting article that stated a study has been done to allow the converting of A1C readings to equivalent in terms of the readings we take as required. In my case, twice a week (Tuesday and Friday), I check my blood sugar as soon as I can after getting up in the morning and then two hours after finishing dinner (the evening meal). My morning score was 117.
This study claims to have a simple equation to convert A1C into these kind of values.
I've emailed the ADA twice asking about this but did not get a reply.
I would think they would be more eager to give me this info. The fact they are selling a calculator to perform this calculation has nothing to do with the non reply? Could it???

Feng Shui This is without a doubt one of the nicest good luck forwards I
have received. Hope it works for you -- and me! Lotus Touts: You have 6
minutes.There's some mighty fine advice in these words, even if you're not
superstitious. This Lotus Touts has been sent to you for good luck from the
Anthony Robbins organization. It has been sent around the world ten times
so far. Do not keep this message.The Lotus Touts must leave your hands in 6
MINUTES. Otherwise you will get a very unpleasant surprise. This is true,
even if you are not superstitious, agnostic, or otherwise faith impaired.
ONE. Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.
TWO. Marry a man/woman you love to talk to. As you get older, their conversational
skills will be as important as any other.
THREE. Don't believe all you hear, spend all you have or sleep all you want.
FOUR. When you say, 'I love you,' mean it.
FIVE. When you say, 'I'm sorry,' look the person in the eye.
SIX. Be engaged at least six months before you get married.
SEVEN. Believein love at first sight.
EIGHT. Never laugh at anyone's dreams. People who don't have dreams don't have much.
NINE. Love deeply and passionately. You might get hurt but it's the only way to live life completely.
TEN.. In disagreements, fight fairly. No name calling.
ELEVEN. Don't judge people by their relatives.
TWELVE. Talk slowly but think quickly.
THIRTEEN! .. When someone asks you a question you don't want to answer, smile and ask, 'Why
do you want to know?'
FOURTEEN. Remember that great love and great achievements involve great risk.
FIFTEEN. Say 'bless you' when you hear someone sneeze.
SIXTEEN. When you lose, don't lose the lesson.
SEVENTEEN. Remember the three R's: Respect for self; Respect for others; and
Responsibility for all your actions
EIGHTEEN. Don't let a little dispute injure a great friendship.
NINETEEN. When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.
TWENTY. Smile when picking up the phone. The caller will hear it in your voice
TWENTY- ONE. Spend some time alone.
Now, here's the FUN part!
Send this to at least 5 people and your life will improve.
1-4 people: Your life will improve slightly.
5-9 people: Your life will improve to your liking.
9-14 people: You will have at least 5 surprises in the next 3 weeks 15 and above:
our life will improve drastically and everything you ever dreamed of will begin to take
shape.
A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart.
