Lactate/pyruvate interpretation

I just got results back from a lactate/pyruvate test my neurologist

ran. Lactic acid reference range was 0.4-2.0 mmol/L, and my level

appears normal at 0.7. The reference range for pyruvate is listed as

0.30-0.70 mg/dL, and my level is listed as 0.03 L. I don't understand

why the units for the reference range (mg/dL) appear different from the

units for my reading (L). Should I ignore that? If so, does that mean

that I have very low pyruvate? If so, can anybody help interpret the

results? (My primary care doc's out of town, and my neurologist

strangely told me the results were fine before they even came back yet,

so I was hoping to get some thoughts from this forum). Thanks!
