My doc usually uses Quest and I get my own tests through Quest and DiscountLabs, but my doc recently tried LabCorp because he said they gave him a better deal on a wider variety of tests.

Half my results aren’t there and say things like ‘unable to calculate result since non-numeric result obtained for component test’, or ‘unable to collect sufficient specimen’. With the remaining results, a bunch of them also just don’t seem at all accurate, like my Total T going from 1000-1400ish on daily 24mg test-c doses to 460 (!) with the same free T of 30.5 and same regime there as when I’d tested in the past at Quest many times. I don’t currently have access to the type of tests they ran other than the category like Total T and Free T to compare to Quest, where we always get the best tests.

It’s clear they just screwed up a lot of them but does this happen often to people? And can I even trust the results that are there in light of that since so many seem ridiculous? Same test dose and regimen, same everything really, and same SHBG and free T, but Total T’s 460 down from the low thousands? That seems like bull.
