 I wouldn't worry about a slight elevation of SGPT. It is much more important to determine if the virus level is coming down. Also the importance of the e antigen is that once you lose it and convert to e antibody positivity, (eg, seroconversion) then all you need is another 6 to 12 months of treatment. Best of luck! | |||||||||
