Is your doctor aware that it was just last summer that LabCorp adjusted their ranges? That means that an awful lot of men woke up one morning and were posting out-of-range total testosterone values. The only change? LabCorp arbitrarily fiddling with their internal ranges. I raise this to point out that it makes little sense for him to react so negatively to something that has no clinical implications. Numbers/lab values in this game are certainly important, but to lock-step every patient into a range (without understanding the politics behind the range) is foolish. Feel good closer to 1000? I'd argue to stay there.
