Liver damage or hepatitis???? Help

Hello everyone. I'm stressed out and making myself sicker..... I went to the doctor and had a routine physical done. All tests came back normal except my metabolic Panel said i had a ALT of 44 and a AST of 35. That was June 26 2014. It said normal AST should be 0-32 and Normal ALT should be 0-40. The doctor told me to wait 4 months and come back for more testing but that was too long to wait after the news concerned me. He said maybe i took to much pain reliever or drinks. I dont ever drink alcohol and i drink tons of water. The month of June i took claratin for my allergies everyday. I took about 3 midol pills and a few Niquil pills for sickness. I took halve of the recommended amount though so i did not overdose. So i went online and did some result and demanded for more blood testing to be done. I wanted to rule out hepatitis. On July 9 2014 I had a Hepatic testing done. It then said AST was 32. ALT was 39. Bilirubin total 0.3. Bilirubin direct---- < 0.1 ALK Phos Total 51 ALBUMIN---4.8 Protein total----7.8 Im nervous and the nurse hasn't called me back to tell me what the results mean. What does this mean? Do i have hepatitis based on these results? Is my liver damaged?

Your results in July are all within the normal range. It is unlikely you have hepatitis.
