you have to check hbcab igm if negative you are cronic
Hi!! im HBSag and HBeag positive. what is it a acute or chronic???
only 5-10% risk of cronic hbv, only 5% risk of active hbv
hbv is a big problem only when infected at birth or very young, in that case cronic risk is almost 99%
What is the prognosis for a person just diagnosed as Acute Hep B....what does the future hold...
on acute hbcab igm is positive, on cronic hbcab igm is negative all the rest can be whatever
Hi,
If it is an acute Hep B
What will the blood test result on
1)
HBeAG
2)
Anti-HBe (HBe Ag-Ab)
Any other indication in support an acute Hep B ? Thanks

you are 100% cronic your state is pretty clear, you just need to know the following to know how aggressive hbv is, eradication is not possible:
hbe/hbeab
fibroscan, to see liver damage
hbvdna
alt/ast
all info about hbv is here:

Ah.. so you mean to say that there still hope to clear the virus? i hope so..
by the way, is it right that anti-HBc Total, should be requested, to know if you have acute of chronic infection? Im wondering coz my doctor requested for HBeAG and Anti-HBe and not Anti-HBc total?.... then i ask her,.. she said Im already cronic.. Im still hoping that my situation is only acute..
Thank you for the advice dude.. i appreciate it....
no at the moment hbv has no cure, you have to check liver damage by fibroscan if you have liver damage you can lower virus replication to stop damage but not eradicate virus
you are still infectious by blood/sex, your blood will be infectious even if you clear virus but much less infectious especially by sex
really? so there is no way we can clear the virus? right?
yes your doctor is right... you are chronic like me... im also hbeag negative and anti-hbe positive...
