OK, which of the four tests in the two examples I posted are in error? I’m well aware that humans operate the equipment. I actually talked to one who does. Remember? She is a PhD researcher for a major pharmaceutical company, the one you referred to as “some lab tech”. Plus, an MD with Quest. Do you recall what he said?
If LabCorp posts anything here I will take it up with them. That would be great.
You are posting here however, and you keep making statements that are incorrect, like IA is the incorrect test or it is for women. That’s just not true as a blanket statement. Meanwhile, you have guys here freaking out over being unable to get the sensitive test, or losing confidence in their doctors because the doctors are “idiots”. Others have posted examples supporting what I have stated and have also spoken to lab professionals and have been told the same things I was told.
Still waiting for you to post all these examples you see.
Sure you can. What do you think the result would be if there is no CRP in the blood? Would that reduce the odds of a false positive high result?
Majority of the time? How do you know this? Examples please?
I wish you would stop posting what, in my opinion, is misleading information. I think you are wrong, though I am open to changing my mind. You think I am wrong. It’s OK, we both get to have an opinion. I don’t think there is anything wrong with either of us stating it. I’m citing examples/evidence of why I think I am right, or may be right. You can state yours. Guys here can read and make up their own minds.
By the way, unless I get kicked off of here for disagreeing with another member, I will continue to try to help others. Plus, I’m a meathead and have a long history with hormones. I lifted heavy weights in the day, at a high level, and still do for an old guy. Because of that, I know A LOT of similar guys for which this is a way of life now. We train, eat right, keep our muscle and stay in shape as best as we can. We also talk, some are into the technical aspects of TRT like we are and are very interested. Many will be getting both tests from their doctors, some see mine. I’ll gather more data. It will be interesting.
Lastly, I do not think you are childish for disagreeing with me. I don’t think I am for disagreeing with you, but again, you get your opinion and if you think I am childish, so be it. I think I am being polite
