Dexa Scan - Is this even possible or am I in denial?

Hi, I'm [26F/5'5"/135lb] and I just got my first DEXA scan done and have a whopping body fat of 42%! I didn't think I would have a super low BF but 42%?? 91st percentile body fat?? Idk if I should be upset or confused.

Here are the results - https://imgur.com/a/Jj1NeNs

Visceral Fat - 0.5lb

I do pretty intense workouts 4-5x a week, incorporating both strength and cardio(running). I don't look like I have 42% BF and have minor muscle definition on my arms and legs. I wouldn't say my diet is the cleanest but I maintain a calorie intake of 1300-1400/day.

Did something go wrong with the measurements? Or am I just in denial?

I'm really worried about the health implications of this. I would appreciate any interpretations or advice!!
