Doctor Sep 23, 2002 Doctor, I'm a hep b carrier, just found out in April of this year. Went for testing for liver enzime, hbv dna, and hbv e ag, result: alt 75, ast 85, hbv dna 491,000 copies, and hbv e ag reactive. Liver biopsy was done 9-6-2002 with no results yet. My question is 1. Does this result mean I'm still carrier or replicating. 2. My doctor's name is Paul Pockros at Scripps Clinic in La Jolla Ca. Is he a capable doctor. Wating for reply. Thanks |
