[pierow]

A buddy of mine had some blood work done and was wondering about his test results. I'm having a hard time finding info online reagrding what is "normal" and thought I'd post here to see if anyone had any thoughts or comments.

Thanks in Advance!

Contact the lab or the doctor. Labs can derive their results in varying ways. Therefore it is important to know what your lab considers the normal range. The print out that your doc should have will state the ranges, but the copy he/she gave you should also contain this info....I just took a closer look at your post and it appears teh ranges are listed. Ex. Testosterone - normal range 241 - 827
