Lab test vs glucose meter
I measured fasting blood sugar at home, it was 145 using glucose meter. On the same time I went to a reputated laboratory in my town and measured my fasting blood test. Fasting was 81 and Hba1c was 4.7. Am I diabetic??? What is the reason for such difference in test results

No you are not diabetic
Lab report says you are absolutely normal
Need to standardize your glucometer..if so much variation you should actually change your glucometer
