Best Treatment for HBv

I am 53 years old last month I have went for preventive health check up and based on the report findings the followings noted; SGOT 83 IU/L ,SGPT 200 IU/L , Doctor recmended me to see the Gastro.consultant , the gastro.consultant advised me to go for others test the result are as follows: Anti-dsDNA 16.6 IU/ml. , HBsAg test value 9520(Reactive) ,HCV,IgG test value 0.12 ( non Reactive) ,Anti Nuclear Antibody ( ANA) 0.12 , Immunoglobulin IgA 279 mg/dl , Tissue Transglutaminase antibody IgA 0.40 U/mL , Anti Mitochondrial Antibody , Serum 0.26 UL/ml , ASMA 2.70 U/mL , LKM Antibody 0.02 U/ml , Hepatitis B envelope Antibody test value (Ab) 43.0 ( Reactive) , Hapatitis Be Antigen ( HBeAg) 0.15 ( Non reactive),AFP 4.38ng/ml  , HBV DNA Quantitative,Real Time PCR 5156250 IU/ml. Based on this the Doctor advised me for the treatment  Tab.Entavir 0.5 mg one daily. Here i went for second opinion with Lever specialist consultant and he advised me to go for Fibroscan which the result is 5.91 Kpa ( Negative for fibrosis).Now the lever specialist advised for Viraferon Peg 80 mg once in a week and monitor CBC & S creatin every 15 days.I have not started the treatment yet as I am going out of India for 1.5 months as Doctor told me that this treatment will be given under there supervision , please suggest which treatment is suitable under these report.Also with vaccine this problem will be solved and how long i have to take this treatment.

Todays I showed all report to Doctor , he advised to change TIRAVIR 300mg with Sebivo 600 mg , his idea to change the medicine is to control the creatinine level. I checked the web site the salt is almost same in both the medicine . please suggest as per your experience.
Looking forward your reply.
Thank you,

you know my concern is that there is something not working like high calcium with vitamin d within ranges and at the same time high pth with high calcium

before starting all that vit d i would go with low dose daily like 2000iu and take all vitamins correlated with vit d pathways to see if this gets solved.magnesium, vit A, vit k2 all work together with vit d and if there are deficiencies of these vits increasing vit d may not be good

gcmaf is the vitamin d transporter to receptors and nagalase made by hbv blocks gcmaf...i d be curious to see what your nagalase is but this is a research test and too difficult to get this in asia
