please explain this levels

I am going nuts here.I got back from my doctors and tomorrow i will have the results of the beta.Now i have something that i don't understand.Last friday i saw my doctor and he draw some blood to check the hormones and the nurse today showed me the results.
Progesterone 365.4
estradiol 141.9

This levels were 5 days post transfer.I asked her about the progesterone level it looked abnormal to me and she said no it's fine the higher the better.I have never seen a progesterone of this level. Maybe is the oposite and got mixet in the lab.I don't know.What you think? Has this ever happened to anyone? What this level mean? Also the doctor told me the last week levels are fine but i haden't seen them yet cause the nurse showed them to me when i was leaving. This is bizarre.

I was 5 weeks and my progesterone was 35 which they said was good for 5 weeks. Yours is awful high. I was on shots and supositories when they took mine. How long ago was you transfer or IUI?

Are you taking progesterone shots?  If so, how much?  I am on 200 a day plus whatever my body takes.

I was never given my numbers... I was just told if they were ok or not.  but from the little I've read, that does seem an awfully high number... at least for the progesterone.  I'm not sure about the estradiol.  
Good luck with the beta!
