| Response from Dr. McGovern
 You do have chronic hepatitis B; however, the rising antibody titers are encouraging. What is missing is your HBV DNA results. That would be helpful to know if your virus in your blood has disappeared. I would not take lamivudine on and off as you describe. This will breed resistance. Other new medications include entecavir. You might want to speak to your provider to see if you can get assess to lamivudine or this medication through a special needs program. Dr. McGovern | ||||||||
