What Causes Positive Result For Hepatitis B After Treatment?
My husband is a hepatitis B carrier since year 2000. He told me that he consulted a doctor and treated it for 2 years. I'm still wondering if this already treated why it is everytime he undergo medical examination it shows that he still positive. If this so, he still needs to undergo some treatment? I'm planning to get him from our country to work here in abroad, Do you think if he undergo medical examination here the result will be the same?
In my case, when i knew his situation i went to a clinic for vaccine. I was injected twice (2) but on the third injection i miss it. Do you think i'm also a hepatitis carrier now since i miss the last injection?

hi.
thanks for posting query at HCM.
HepB virus cannot be eradicated completely.
HBsAg can not be completely eradicated in a patient suffering from HepB.
however, complications maybe prevented if proper medication is taken and proper diet plan is followed.
even if HBV DNA count in PCR are not high,
Liver enzymes should be monitored regularly while HepB markers maybe checked every 6 to 12 months.
hope to answer your concern.
wish you good n sound health.
regards
Dr Tayyab Malik
