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???
