Am i dying?
Brief Answer:
ALT never suggest death!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and sorry to hear you don't have the results.
There are several causes of ALT and they are rarely life threatening. I will recommend that you stay calm. Unless all the results are gotten and interpreted together, ALT alone is not sufficient to make any reasonable guess as to what the problem or severity is.
When you succeed to get any results, please let me know. Death is not a possibility right now and you should be relaxed and not tensed.
I wish you well. Keep me posted and know am always ready to address any burning issues that may come up.

Brief Answer:
More information is needed for such a conclusion!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for following up with me.
Your symptoms are not very suggestive of any particular disease condition. In most cases, these are transient and never really need any particular treatment. Good nutrition, regular exercise, increased fruits and vegetable consumption in most instances are sufficient to get this resolved over time.
I will side with the continued evaluation and unless something new comes up, there is no way I can make a call on what the disease condition is. Frankly, I do not think there is something really wrong that we must be addressing right now.
Investigations still seems the best ongoing approach to me.
When the results come n, I will like to review and shed more light on this and say whether there are some other things we need to be looking at right now.
