Hello,
You are a chronic hepatitis B patient. Such carrier patients usually live normal if no complication occurs. Investigations such as Sgpt, SGOT, and HBsAG levels should be checked regularly to see liver health.
If liver enzymes are persistently high, or if the HBsAG levels are raised, then only medication would be needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Parth Goswami
