hello and thank you for asking HCM,

I understand your concern and I studied your case. Celiac disease is one of the conditions which could be associated with increased eosinophils. There are also a lot of other gastrointestinal conditions connected with this high level so you sholud have to wait for the resuts of your tests.
Your low iron levels could be a result of malabsorption associated to celiac disease and therefore your bowels don't absorb enough iron.

I hope this answer was helpful to you.
