Ok good to take that medicine. Least side effects of all the available medicines as of now. Don't worry lot of people have hbv infection world wide. Just manage it with medicine lifelong and live healthy.
Only problem is the social stigma u face when go for some surgical procedure but that too depends on place to place.
