I was diagnosed with hepatitis B five years ago. What does my blood report indicate?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

All your test values show that you have active hepatitis B virus infection and that you can spread the disease. Also that there is a chance that if the infection continues, you may get liver damage. Are these tests recently taken or five years ago, when you were first detected to have hepatitis B?

The hepatitis B core antibody is less, showing your immunity against that virus is low. Also, the high DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) value shows the viral load is high. Have you done your liver enzymes study to see the condition of your liver? You will have to repeat these tests periodically to know if the infection is subsiding, also LFT (liver function test) to see if your liver is getting damaged.

For many people, hepatitis B does not produce any symptoms and will subside on its own without any treatment. But you have to be careful with your dietary habits. It would help if you did not take alcohol at all. It will make your liver damage faster. Also, you should not take the Paracetamol tablet either as a pain killer or for fever. Also, avoid fatty and oily foods. I hope this was helpful.
