really wonder if anyone can help to answer my q in this forum? pls assist

i had hep B (acute) in June 2006 and my blood tests on 8 July 06 and 22 Aug 06 show the followings:
................8 Aug........22 Aug
Alk phosphtase..60.8..........59.9; U/L
ALT.............51.8..........16.9U/L
AST.............30.0..........17.3 U/L
Tot Bilirubin...21.5.......... 9.9 umol/L
HbsAg......................... -ve
HbsAb......................... <1.00 mIU/ml
if i am correct, the antibodies not appeared yet but Hep B should be cleared. I wanna to ask why the result is kind of confusing or am i now a hep B carrier or whether HBsAb will become +ve and if so, when (how many months after the clearence of HBsAg) should I expect that HBsAb become >=10mIU/ml or HBsAb (+ve)?
thx

You will always carry antibodies whether the disease is active or not.

Ask your doctor or nurse practitioner. We are lay people, but some are very knowledgable.
