hepatitis test
I have been swollen in feet hands, fingers, neck, elbows for almost 6 months. i had my first blood test finally, everything looks normal except when I see the hepatitis results, I think the first number shown is what my blood test revealed. The second number is the average number. My test shows the following.
Hep A Ab, Igm..................Negative(negative)
HBsAg Screen..................Negative (" )
Hep B Core Ab, Igm...........Negative (")
Hep C Virus Ab..................0.9 (0.0-0.9 s/co ratio)
Is Hep C showing a borderline?
Hep A Ab, Igm..................Negative(negative)
HBsAg Screen..................Negative (" )
Hep B Core Ab, Igm...........Negative (")
Hep C Virus Ab..................0.9 (0.0-0.9 s/co ratio)
Is Hep C showing a borderline?
it is such a small antibody result that I would say you don't have HEP C. But I would still get a PCR test done to check for viral load. If it comes back Undetected or None then you are definitely Hep C free!
