Our blood glucose levels changes constantly throughout day and night.. It is never constant.. It also changes with food, Type and quantity of food and even stress..
These minor day to variation is pretty normal so dnt worry as long as your reading are within target... Moreover glucometer checks capillary plasma glucose and lab checks venous glucose so some the difference is obvious..
