I am of course still going to call the doc, but my assumption is that since there are so many things thta can cause that "reading" - that perhaps that is why they didn't bother to tell us. I don't know, but I am slightly miffed to have not been told. I am very detail oriented and like to understand fully what we are facing.
Again thanks for responding.
