The test indicates that you've either been vaccinated for Hepatitis A or you came in contact with it sometime in the past. Many of us have. If your liver enzymes are all normal, you don't have active hepatitis.

These are good results: you are immune to both hep A and B. For hep A, you might have been infected in the past, or were vaccinated. For hep B, apparently you were vaccinated. No worries at all.
