I dont have any health issues but there is confusion. Doctor, previously asked this question and there is a confusion in reports. Pathology report of RBS is 101 and in home RBS is 126 (Dr Morepen) which is correct - pathology or home reading? Both are checked after 1 hour breakfast ? Which reading should I trust? Photo is attached. Please advice

Venous (Pathology) report to be trusted more if the sample has processed within adequate time!!! There is no use to check the blood glucose after 1 hour, Do it in fasting state or after 2 hours of breakfast
