HBsAg quantitative after 6 months on entecavir

Hi All
Started entecavir 0.5mg 6 months ago
Baseline readings were
1. Viral load 6250 Iu/ml (came down to 333 iu/ml in two months)
2. HBsAg quantitative was 1666.10iu/ml
Now 6 months after entecavir the HBsAg is gone up to 2636iu/ml

Please comment on this rise in HBsAg quantitative

3. VITAMIN D LEVEL was 19ng/ml
Now after 5 months taking 10000iu perday it has risen to 166 nmol/L
Normal range us 75-250 nmol/L
(last time same lab gave reading in ng/ml and now nmol/L,  how do I convert?)

Oxidative stress. Her hbvdna increased when she got stressful and exhausted. During treatment she was not in good mood too.

Hi All
The Viral DNA result came in today, it's undetectable.
In two months it was 333iu/ml from 6250iu/ml. Nearing 6 months it's undetectable. However HBsAg quantitative has gone up to 2656 from 1666.10iu/ml
