When 6.1mmol/L is converted to mg/dL we get 110mg/dL. A fasting blood sugar (blood glucose) of 110mg/dL is considered high for a healthy adult.
To convert 6.1mmol/L to mg/dL, multiply by 18.018. For example, 6.1mmol/L x 18.018 = 110mg/dL.
A fasting blood sugar (blood glucose) of 110mg/dL is considered abnormal for a healthy adult. A fasting blood sugar between 100 and 125mg/dL is actually called "impaired fasting glucose". This is also known as "pre-diabetes" and means you're at high risk of going on to develop diabetes.
A fasting blood sugar (blood glucose) of 110mg/dL is considered abnormal for a child. A fasting blood sugar between 100 and 125mg/dL is actually called "impaired fasting glucose". This is also known as "pre-diabetes" and means there is a high risk of developing diabetes.
A fasting blood sugar (blood glucose) of 110mg/dL is considered normal for someone with diabetes. Anything between 71 and 125mg/dL is in the normal range before meals.
A fasting blood sugar (blood glucose) of 110mg/dL is considered abnormal for someone during pregnancy. A fasting blood sugar over 99mg/dL may indicate that someone has gestational diabetes and they should speak with their healthcare professional. However, it's best practice to diagnose gestational diabetes with an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) rather than relying on a fasting blood sugar. A 2hr post glucose level of over 140mg/dL indicates gestational diabetes.
Hypoglycemia is when blood sugar levels are too low - typically below 70mg/dL. Symptoms of hypoglycaemia include shaking, sweating, hunger, headache, looking pale or being confused. A blood sugar of 110mg/dL is not usually considered hypoglycemia.
Hyperglycemia is when there’s too much glucose in the blood - typically above 200mg/dL 2 hours after a meal or above 125mg/dL when fasted. A fasting blood sugar of 110mg/dL is not usually considered hyperglycemia.
In general, you should see a doctor if you're having high or very low blood sugar levels. It's unusual for non-diabetics to get very low blood sugar level because the body doesn't let glucose levels get too low because glucose is essential for brain function. A fasting blood sugar of 110mg/dL is high in a non-diabetic. If you regularly have a fasting glucose this high, you should see your doctor.
