Using equation: A1c = (Bg + 46.7) / 28.7 you can calculate your current A1c (approximate).
Therefore; A1c = (139.1 + 46.7) / 28.7 {my A1c (approximate) is currently 6.47%}

Very interesting--can you tell us where you came upon this formula? I've not heard of it before. Any reference or link would be helpful.
Thanks--
