It is absolutely possible to be highly gifted and have a significant disability that depresses FSIQ to an "average" range.

My son's subtest scores on the WISC range from the 2nd percentile to the 99th, and if you only looked at his FSIQ (which actually shouldn't even be calculated due to the significant differences between his index scores), you'd think he was about average.

Once you have the full report, I'd suggest finding someone who has extensive experience with highly gifted children who also have learning disabilities, and having them at least review the testing results with you.
