Normal
ranges on lab tests are how Dr's mess ya up...those are samples of the population being tested, anything in that range can't be considered "normal". They tell you that but it's not true not for your health, anyway. If you paid attention to lab ranges and considered those the norm, would you have taken your Testosterone reading and said "hey it's in range"? 395 is "in range" but FAR from ideal or even just healthy.TSH is about being "low"...when it's up to 2 and higher, it means your short some (or your body thinks it is) thyroid hormone and the pituitary is pinging your thyroid saying "make more!", so there's indication of a problem there that needs investigated. Hence the added tests for more than just TSH.DHEA though is the opposite in ranges, it's something you (may) want in the very upper percentile of range.
