[QUOTE="Cataceous, post: 246166, member: 38109"] You're comparing Quest's equilibrium dialysis test to their calculated method. I'd thought the latter was based on Vermeulen—and the range is about right—but there appears to be a divergence in results here unless there's something peculiar about the SHBG or albumin values. Did they give you the specific results for these? Otherwise I'd be inclined to disregard their result of 76.7 pg/mL and assume that 130-140 pg/mL is what it should be. That's mid-range, which still conflicts with the upper-range ED result. But in either case you're not low. I'm not sure how much clarity you'll get by throwing in a couple of different test methodologies. I'd be more interested in a repeat of the ED/CALC tests. [/QUOTE]
