In January/February 2017 I did FBC,platelets counts and ESR which shows normal and Ultrasound scan of Liver in CHB is normal also according to the new hepatitis B consultant.He said I don't need any drug and that I should stop the drug.I feel muscles and pains in my back and right Abdomen once in a while buy changes position.Please I want to also know if an inactive or active carrier state and  my chances in clearing the virus and if I require drugs. Currently I use only Silibon140mg and herbal supplement like bitter leaf and Phyllantus niruri. I just got my HBV DNA=6.15*10^1IU/ml and HBeAg=0.06 Negative (Index value1.0 Positive) result done in June 2017.

Hello Plz can anyone explain the reason for my shoulder and neck pain,if its related to HBV or liver damage. I screened for HBV weeks ago and the lab scientist said its very faint almost negative becos the line is very very faint and its been like this since December 2016, though i was told with my last test results and viral load of 61.5  and hbeag -ve that am an inactive carrier.
Is my shoulder pain or next pain related to HBV or liver damage
plz anyone with an answer here?
My Liver Function Test today 07/10/18: Dir  Bilirubin= 6.7umol/L(0-6.8), Total Bil=17.6umol/L(0-21),
ALT=38.7(0-80), AST=25.2IU/L(0-50), ALP=177(62-306). Please can someone tell me if these LFT shows any liver damage. But i still feel slight on and off pains on my right ribs that feels like an Ulcer. Did H Pylori test and its negative. My doctor still clears me of no liver damage.
Count your hbvdna and test hbsag quatitative (IU/mL), you need the two tests to know if you're IC or AC. Your alt starts raising, so check your results every three months.
OK I will but my last HBVDNA is 61.5 and HBeag is negative 0.06 June last year
And my doctor said am an inactive carrier
I did my HBV DNA last month and its 138IU/mL previously it was 61.5IU/mL last year
I did my HBV DNA last month and its 138IU/mL previously it was 61.5IU/mL last year, what does this imply and am i still an inactive carrier or do i have liver damage,ultra scan shows nothing for two years

Sept 2018 I did my HBV DNA its 138IU/mL previously it was 61.5IU/mL last year, what does this imply and am i still an inactive carrier or do i have liver damage,ultra scan shows nothing for two years.
The lab expert told me that the pains am having is not from the liver that its as an ulcer due to the herbal concursion i take every morning on an empty stomach i.e. Gastric acid.
Hello please am beginning to feel intense right abdominal pains.My last HBV DNA is 132 in Sep. 2018 and also July 2018 test result Dir  Bilirubin= 6.7umol/L(0-6.8), Total Bil=17.6umol/L(0-21),

Results look ok to me. Generally if HBV DNA  result is > 2000 iu/ml, doctor prescribes medicines. There may be little abdominal pain but it should not be intense one since your results look ok to me. Sometimes, if one has fatty lever, then that might be reason for abdominal pain too. I hope, your ultrasound report is ok and there is no gall bladder stones that might be the reason for abdominal pain. Drink lot of water and eat more fruits especially Water Mellon and Papaya. Most importantly, check your cholesterol level. One should test the same and if the report is not ok, then one should eat medicine to control the same. I hope, i have shared valuable information.
Yes Kaatot u have shared a valuable information,i have done ultra scan since 2016 4 times and it didnt show anything. Am wondering if ulcer pain can be felt on the upper right abdomen especially with gas and bloating/tightness.
Yes, possible. Suggestion - lift your hands up and hold the same position for 10 mins...sometimes, it works...besides, green tea two times a day also helpful...try this..
I just tried raising up my hands for 10mins but not much of relieve.I was taking organic green tea with honey daily before but stopped it because some persons say green tea is not good for ulcer but am not sure if my pains is from ulcer or my liver but its been right hypochondria pain for over a year but when i breath in i dont feel and i still do my daily work.Thanks
I feel, the pain is not b'coz of  liver. Anyway, please continue raising up your hands for 10 mins daily. Meanwhile, check with doctor for some advice since you have ulcer as you stated. Thanks
Sorry i have not confirmed it have an ulcer, Should be sitting or standing while raising my hands.
Though i work 12 hours shift work sitting down for more than 2 years now and not much of physical activity. Or should i go back to Tenoforvir which i used for 7 months in 2016.
Whatever position you like. You don't need to take any medicines. This is my assessment. But you can check with your doctor to assess your situation. Thanks.
Thanks alot
First of all, you need to calm down, a little pain sometimes in the right side is not the end of the world. Maybe you have eaten something and liver didn't like it. Anywayz, your blood results are good, liver enzymes are in the limit, HBV DNA is also low. In would recommend you to take as much rest (sleep, stay in bed, anything without psyhical activity) as you can. You have to give your body rest and time to fight the disease. The body heals himself the best when you sleep.
Thanks alot another concern is i was using phyllantus niruri,garlic,ginger and lemon when my HBV DNA is 61 last year June my Doctor convinced me to stop herbs rather to go for Silybon which brought the HBV DNA up to 132. So my question is should i used Phyllantus niruri, Silybon or Tenoforvir. I only want to use one drug
Your HBV DNA is < 2K iu/ml so ideally you are healthy and you should not take any medicines. Yes, you can continue Phyllantus niruri. I think, this is herbal product. It doesn't have side effects. This is my personal assessment. As rightly pointed out by DerDieDas, you would have eaten something that might not have been liked my Liver. Hence, you might be having pain. We should have good lifestyle and food habits. This is a must. We should have homely food and avoid junk foods.
Thanks alot will use phyllantus niruri
Please I don't know how to interpret my HBV-DNA results

October 2018  results:
HBV-DNA = 7.84E+2 IU/ml by PCR


June 2018  results:
HBV-DNA = 1.23E+3 IU/ml by PCR

Which of the above result is better ? What do they mean in actual figures?

These results were done in a Public hospital in China.

I would be grateful for your advice.

Thanks
1.23E+3=1023
7.84E+2=784

If u started tdf once you did u stop it. Ur viral load were low due to its effect only.
Inactive or helathy carrier is a transient term and may convert into active time to time depending upon body's immunity. Tdf once started should be continued for life long irrespective of viral load.

I started a combination drug of Lamivudine Tenofovir Disopril Fumarate (all in one) in June2016 and was advised to stopped when I started using my current gastroenteologist and a consultant in hepatitis B who asked me to do the tests and her said all were normal in December.I didn't use TDF from mid Dec2016 till now when I did the Viral Load and HbeAg.So is it the Gornal effect of TDF dat made my Viral Load low till now or my immune system or the herbal supplement and Silibon140mg?

No need of tdf. Continue the herbal ones

Am I an inactive carrier or an active carrier

Hbeag -ve individuals are infaact more at danger of recurrent flares of inflammation causing fibrosis. It's better u continue TDF. There isn't any significant side effect associated with it. Your muscle pain is unrelated to tdf and better relate it with some other cause.
