    well, did a little researching, still confused....but

    if the units are nmol/L this = nmol/L x 28.8=ng/dl
    if this were true my test level would 299.52!!
    this site looked to say that 8-35nmol/L was normal

    on www.carleton.ca it said the avg. is 6-10mg/day produced


    feel free to check this out as well, see if you can make heads out of it..
