fastseo:It seems you are only looking at chronic infection. A patient who has a positive HBsAg can develop acute liver failure even if HbeAg is negative at the time of testing. |

fastseo:Good evening doctor, from your comments I know you are either a hepatologist or gastroenterologist. I myself is a hepatitis B patient. I became aware of the virus in 2012 after developing serious symptoms such as yellowish eyes, edema, ascites, fever etc. After I was diagnosed of the virus, I was admitted and lamivudine, b complex were prescribed for me for one month and a drug neomicin (I could not remember its name). From there, I was discharged and stopped taking any drug. Then in 2019, I developed liver cirrhosis with upper gastroentistinal bleeding. From there I underwent endoscopy 15 times and banding 8 times. Now I was placed on propranolol 40mg once daily. I did profile test, the surface antigen (HBsAg) is negative but I can't remember the status of my HBeAg. I have been doing LFT, sometimes the results came out normal and sometimes it is not normal. As for viral load, I have never done it so I don't know the status. Please sir, how do I know whether I still have the virus or not because I was told having HBsAg negative doesn't mean that I am free of the virus. |

adisabarber:Hepatitis (A/B/C) is not a killer. Stop scaring the young man. In fact there is cure for C and A,, which means the cure for B would not take too long to be available. |

Urbaninspire:Alright, get a test done yourself to be sure the diagnosis is correct, if it is, keep moving, the key is never to give up until you get what you want and standing on God's promises. You are encouraged, as long as there's life, there's always hope for a better tomorrow🤗 |

Amayabor1:for you to develop active liver damage, then the virus should be running into hundred of thousands to millions to hundreds of millions. most patients with HBeAg negative have viral load of just 100, 500 to few thousand and as such they are far less likely to have liver damage. what I mean here is that most of them have low viral DNA levels(<104 copies/ml). But they must at least do liver scan and also LFT once in a year and from data from a non profit organisation in the UK.. which shows that as long as there is no Co-infection, as long as there is normal ast n alt reading normal value then that individual is less likely to have liver damage. like i said liver damage don't happen over night... because the liver is able to regenerate and can regrown if damage to over 70%. and it takes 20 to 30 years for hbv to do huge damage to the liver n once u are doing this check up once in a year.. 'you should spot it and take action to reverse it. We have seen a situation where a person has viral load of 50 millions to 100 millions with no single liver damage and as soon they are placed on tenofovir the viral load drop to undetectable level within 6 months the most important thing is to be positive.... fear brings a lot of woes... after all people are dying of cancer, malaria etc hvb is not something that takes life....today today.. 'it takes years of non detection n once detected then you are fine. let's give people hope... don't scare them thinking they will die today.... I repeat hope to remain positive n live for Tomorrow |

| Re: I Failed Job Pre Medical Tests by Amayabor1: 6:45pm On Jul 31, 2023 |
fastseo:This is false. Hepatitis B virus is not a cytotoxic virus, that means, the virus doesn't injury to the liver. What actually causes injury to the liver is the person's immune response to the virus. In an attempt to kill the virus, the immune system also kill normal liver cells. So, you are wrong when you say for a patient to develop acute liver failure, the virus must be running into hundreds of thousands or millions. Few hundreds or tens of the virus can trigger an immune response and with such immune response, acute liver damage can occur. |

UtuokeAlcoholic:you shouldn't have stop the medication... its for life because once you stop the virus multiply quickly and start their havoc. a loss of HBsAg or where the test shows negative means you are free. run an anti-HBs test to confirm and if positive it means you are free. a loss of HBsAg gives rise to HBsAb as both can't be positive at same time go to another lab and run another test |
