Advise On Breath Test Baseline Results

My 5 year old daughter was diagnosed with Fructose Malabsorption, she has had a distended stomach, pain, headaches, and gas. She is otherwise healthy. Her breath test baseline was 3 parts per million, 30 min was 7 parts, 60 min was 32 parts, 90 min was 43 parts, and 120 min was 25 parts. I read another persons test results were much higher, baseline 8 parts and 2 hours 250 parts. Do my daughter s lower results mean that her Malabsorption is not as severe? Is there any comparison of results in this way?
