[QUOTE="Dr Justin Saya MD, post: 91169, member: 12687"] Well here's the defining point of that discussion: the "first sample" is considered the first sample UPON AWAKENING. Thus, if the 2:45AM swab was upon awakening from your night's sleep then it should indeed be compared to the "first sample" reference range. However, it is also preferred that the swabs be collected on a day when you are as close to your normal circadian rhythm as possible (same time to bed and same time awakening). Everydaystruggle, if I'm not mistaken, was a different scenario as I believe the midnight sample was the LAST sample of his day (e.g. before he went to bed). However, because this was technically the AM hours LabCorp automatically referenced it to the "first sample" range. [/QUOTE]
