Medutest — 8 things I got wrong before I got it right, and I am aware this is a minority view on this board. What a result posted here is actually worth, and how to make yours worth more. A single figure with no batch identifier is about a vial nobody can locate. Add the batch and it becomes about a lot. Add the…

date of analysis matters as much as the number
inter-lab variance runs a point or two, plan your outrage accordingly
First result I ever posted here got asked for the batch number and the claim. Fair, and my posts have been better ever since.

the trend across lots is worth more than any single figure
Kept every report as a PDF with the batch in the filename. Two years in, it is the most useful folder I own.
