I'm not sure what type of conversion your reffering to @Sheeshee. If your awake, are you really sleeping? This awake time is something your sleep monitor should know about and would show up in a professional sleep study.
Several users have worn their fitbits while participating in a requested or non requested sleep study and found that their Fitbit sleep record was remarkably close in accuracy in the produced graph.
If I was going to discuss my sleep habits with my doctor, I would show him my phone and the sleep graphs Fitbit produced
My doctor is smart enough to understand what he is looking at.
When it comes to sleep a it is very common for the body to switch types of sleep throughout the night.

What should I know about sleep stages?

Well I still don't understand the question. Your saying that you want the time awake to be recorded as being asleep so that your doctor can better understand your sleeping habits. To me this makes no sense, especially considering a paid sleep study would mark the time awake as being awake.
I was trying to elaborate on what info a sleep study would give and how it relates to the info Fitbit provides.
As for your question, it simply does not make sense to me and I'm not sure where the thought is coming from or what logic was used to come to the conclusion that awake time needs to be recorded as sleep.

I no longer have any faith in the sleep cycle information. The other night I put my fitbit on the charger and laid it on the desk. I forgot to put it back on before going to bed and while it was on the charger it recorded an over 8 hour sleep, complete with the cycles of when I supposedly was awake or in deep sleep. So I wonder about the other things that it supposedly records while on my wrist.
