get_sub_field() after update_sub_field() – new data not returned

When I update_sub_field() and then get_sub_field() the new data is not returned.
Is there a way to force a new postmeta query?

My pseudo code:

1. Loop through sub fields of a Repeater field
2. update_sub_field() when existing data is different.
3. Loop through fields and get_sub_field() and display new data.

I *could* keep a copy of the changed data and use that when displaying the new data but it would be easier to get fresh data from the database.
