You are the only person I know who has ever had this test. I am very interested to hear how you do on Pristiq. It acts on norepinephrine seratonin, and dopamine to some extent.

Why you did good on Celexa an SSRI and why the test points to Pristiq an SSNRI is a good question. Maybe you will do better on Pristiq then Celexa.

I do not agree with Michanne that just because the test will only tell you how your liver will metabolize a certain drug does not mean it is not useful in telling you it effectiveness.
How you metabolize a drug may very well have a lot to do with its effectiveness.
