I agree you should check the igm.  I am new to all this but I am chronic bc hbsag + and anti anti hbc igm -.   Hope you are acute.  Discovering that you are chronic is a heavy burden and life's altering

hbcab total constitutes igG and igM. first one indicates chronic 2nd one acute. total is doubtful for chronicity though ur eAg is negative which supports u being chronic. If these tests are done at more than 6 months after ur possible exposure, u r certainly chronic. check for anti hbcab igm if possible.
