Response from Dr. Taylor
 This result means that your liver cells are making hepatitis B virus. You are infected. I cannot tell from this result if this is a new infection that could go away on its own, or an older, permanent infection. Next suggested ideal steps include: --getting tested for HIV and hepatitis C --getting tested for hepatitis B surface antigen, hepatitis B e antigen, ALT (a liver injury blood test) --cutting down or ideally eliminating tobacco and alcohol, as use of these increase risk for cancer in the liver, which does NOT develop in most people with hepatitis B but can --seeing if your household contacts and sexual contacts can get tested for hepatitis B, and if they are not infected, seeing whether they can get vaccinated against hepatitis B -- finding a doctor to work with you on additional evaluation, care and possible treatment. All best to you |
