DM sufferers need to grow confidence in themselves that they are able to control their blood sugar levels independently. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between self-efficacy and blood glucose levels in Type II diabetes mellitus patients. This type of research was a quantitative study using a cross sectional study design, with a sample of 75 respondents. Based on the statistical test results, the results obtained were X2 count > X2 table and the Fisher's Exact Test value was 0.000 < ɑ 0.05. There was a relationship between self-efficacy and blood glucose levels in type II DM patients and based on test results the phi coefficient (φ) is obtained (φ) = 1,000 which means that it indicates a strong relationship between self-efficacy and blood glucose levels in type II diabetes mellitus patients.
