Can anyone interpret the following test results.  My son is in the Navy and went to a military doctor and asked for a celiac test.  I am bioposy confirmed Celiac.  He was sent the lab results and told no reason for a follow up appointment.  Military doctors only take action on the most important or pressing medical conditions.  It took 3 years for my son to get the shoulder surgery that he was told by a military doctor that he needed.  The doctor never said whether he has Celiac according to these results or not.  Thank you for your help.  Rita
