looking at the above reports, my doctor ( an hematologist) asked my father if i am their adopted child . My father replied in negative stating that i am their own child.

request experts for honest advice.
please let me know if the reports suggests that i am adopted or my father not being my biological father. if yes, what is the % probability of the same
