      You treat to the meter bud I’d recommend washing your hands and retesting with the meter then use it for the calculation

      I was taught that finger pricks are more accurate and to treat it as the actual reading when there are discrepancies. With a difference that large I would probably wash my hands thoroughly and do another finger stick to verify the results.
