Discussion Long Haul ×2 Well Actually ×3 Slow Clap ×1

Quick one. Canada here.

below spec works very differently where I live than in the threads that dominate the front page, and I keep seeing people confidently given advice that simply does not apply outside the US.

Specifics: the route I used took 23 weeks and cost roughly what I expected. The admin was worse than the cost. The thing that would have saved me the most time was knowing which document to ask for at the start.

Happy to answer questions from anyone in the same jurisdiction.

Strongly agree. Below-spec results matter as much as good ones.

reship and retest is the honest way to handle a low result

Yeah, the Medutest number matching the claim is the actual signal.

My Janoshik result matched the vendor COA exactly, which is rare. FGP deserves that note in the directory.

do not editorialise in the title, put the number in the title and the opinion in the body

Strongly agree.

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.

Yeah, the VendorInvestigate number matching the claim is the actual signal.

Batch number? Date of test?

u/mod_ambulatoryadmin235 points·2 years ago

No. This is the kind of confident post that gets copied into a screenshot and repeated for years. Where is the evidence.

multiple batches from KP show a spread, that is the data

SWB product, Medutest test, 97.9% result, batch 2, 34 days in transit. Logged.

the 99.2% result confirmed the vendor claim, that is the signal

Adding to this: test results is doing more work than the comment implies.

My PeptideMeter result matched the vendor COA exactly, which is rare. TFC deserves that note in the directory.

The confident tone is doing a lot of work that the evidence is not.

the vial you ordered versus the vial you received might be different batches

u/refund_ledger11 points·2 years ago

the Medutest and PeptideMeter results differ by 3 points, both inside inter-lab variance

Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 26 weeks to accept.
