Welcome at HCM i have gone through your query and being your doctor I completely understand your health concerns.... What is your age? Have you completed the treatment for hepatitis b ? When did u get your last PCR and HB e antigen and antibody testing done?? These all question needs to be answered in proceeding your case... Hepatitis B if not treated will lead to cirrhosis eventually... So a stitch in time saves nine... If you already got treatment you need to check . HB e Antibody And HBV dna by PCR ...to look for recurrence... Meanwhile continue with your routine chores and do regularly check your liver function tests along with liver ultrasound atleast once a year.. If you find any abnormally immediately consult your hepatologist... Hope your query is adequately answered.. Regards Dr saad sultan
