Help Interpreting My Lab Results? (updated)

Hi trents, just an update to my post, I had my follow up with my gastroenterologist. Scheduled my endoscopy for July 17th and got my biopsy results back July 28th.

I took an Everlywell screening at home last week and yesterday had a Celiac panel done at my doctor's office. The results came in today. Are these numbers a pretty sure sign that I have Celiac? My doctor hasn't reviewed the results...
