Test strips vary

When you measure anything, there's an error. I've read BG monitors may have errors up to 15%.
If you make multiple measures, take the average, or median.
Or do only one measure and assume the real value is somewhere close to the reading (up to 15% up, or down).

Close is all you need to assume..
If is shows 15 15% either way is high
If it shows 5 you be close to it as 15% of 5 is only a small difference
Even lab results for hba1c vary. There is no 100 percent accurate but they are good enough to guide you in the right direction
