My endo told me that the test from blood that is drawn will always vary from the finger tip tests. She said both numbers are correct, just different blood sources. (Vein vs capillary?)

I had the finger-tip done within a few days of bloodwork...my fingertip was lower by about 4 points.

I think test will vary all the time anyway.
