What Does This Blood Test Result Indicate?

I undergo a whole abdomen ctscan and the doctor saw an ampullary mass near my pancreas, thickening of the colon and hiatus hernia. After that, gastroscopy and colonoscopy were done and biopsy. Another test to be sure was the mri but the result was good, no ampulla was seen. Bloodtests were also done, cea and ca 19-9, my cea result was 9.8 but the other was within normal level. What can you say about this? Thanks so much.
