Interpreting Results? Celiac Panel

Ok, so I got a copy of my celiac panel and tried (via some posts on here) to interpret whether there could be some potential that I do in fact have celiac, despite my dr saying not likely. I was soooo sure these were going to come back positive as soooo many symptoms fit me. Could someone interpret the results, and maybe tell me if it is 100 percent certain that there is no chance of having celiac (u can read my other posts of symptoms and family autoimmune history if interested. Here are the results:

Gliadin Antibody (IGG) 4

Reference range

Less than 11 neg

11-17 Equivocal

Greater than 17 Pos

Gliadin Antibody (IGA) 6

Ref Range

Less than 11 neg

11-17 equiv

Greater than 17 pos

TTG Antibody, IGG less than 3

Less than 7 Neg

7-10 Equiv

Greater than 10 pos

TTG Antibody, IGA less than 3

Less than 5 neg

5-8 equiv

Greater than 8 pos

Reflex to Titer

Endomysial AB (IGA) screen Negative

Are these all the tests? Why do all labs have different reference ranges? Sad to say, but I feel sad not to have had these positive :( I'm just searching...

Ok, I keep forgetting to write all my questions. If these aren't all the tests, could anyone tell me what else to ask for? I'm having a hard time understanding all of this. Thank you guys, so much.

      While a definitive causal link remains unclear, vitamin D's known role in immune modulation and intestinal barrier integrity suggests that it plays a significant role in the development and progression of celiac disease.  Reduced 25(OH)D levels are associated with celiac disease.  In celiac disease, gluten can damage these tight junctions, and vitamin D may play a protective role in this context.

      I have posted a lot on here and find that the support , advice and information here is much more helpful than anything else.. ever. I am really tired of the back and forth advice in the medical community and I am beyond frustrated and over all of it currently. I will try to keep this as brief as possible. I have positive TTG IGA antibodies - and I have had these every time I have been tested. The first time they were positive I was told I did not have celiac and couldn't have celiac but I was gluten intolerant and to go gluten free. I did this for about 3-4 months, dedicated I might add, and I did feel better. However, my blood glucose went up drastically and since I was already pre-diabetic...

      No, I have not been checked for any other deficiencies or issues. No one will check these things since my EGD looked normal and there was no damage. I recently saw my gastro doc and it is just frustrating. I have diabetes, which is basically uncontrolled, and I keep being told, stop eating gluten free, because the gluten free diet is contributing to my diabetes worsening. Then I am told oh just eat gluten free and you can go on insulin, which I don't feel like is a good answer either. So I end up eating gluten because they tell me it's okay or that I should bc of my diabetes. I am so sick today - physically mentally emotionally - just tired of this roller coaster ride.  I am open  for any realistic...
