you are immune to hep b as report says, but antibody level is low 4.4 . if units are correct, please TAKE A BOOSTER DOSE OF HEP B VACCINE to get value above 10, which is currently considered as protective against hep b. please take eye on units as stephen pointed.
Well, the second line of your report did say HBsAg screen negative. Now, can you remember whether you had vaccination against HBV when you were born or as a toddler? If not, then you may care to test your HBcAb next time.
Hi StephenCastlecrag. Thank you for your reply.

Hep B Surface Ab means antibody to the Hep B Surface antigen. A positive/reactive value does not mean you are infected with Hep B. Its value can also be expressed quantitatively as a number in mIu/ml. A value greater than 10 usually means you have protective immunity against Hep B. HOWEVER, all these interpretations depend on whether your Hep B AG is positive or negative. So please check your report for the result of your Hep B AG.
