My suggestion is to call the GI doctor's office and ask for the nurse to call you back. Many times they will explain your results and if they are abnormal or not. But be prepared for them not to go into detail. If you can't get them to talk with you, call your primary and ask them to explain the results.

I wouldn't reply on the internet for answers because your blood work results can lead to various ideas of what it actually is. You will drive yourself nuts trying to decipher what is what. Only your doctor knows why they ordered the tests and what they were looking for. Even a normal result can yield answers so your best to call and ask for yourself.

Hope you feel better soon.
