Is there a way to tell if they ordered the correct test from looking at the lab report? I have some doubts that they ordered the correct lab as once again my estrogen is coming up over normal. This doesn't make sense as I actually decreased my testosterone to .20 mL every 3 days (.25 was actually preventing me from sleeping some) while keeping my Arimidex dosage at the same amount.

If the high end of the normal range does not go over about 40, then I'd say the test was designed for men. My LabCorp LC/MS/MS test gives a range of 8-35 pg/mL. Also, if the test description uses the term "ECLIA", it's probably the wrong test.
