hep b

I was employed as ofw in the middle east but the gov requires a hep b medical examination. I was all set and basically started working while waiting for the result. My world fell down knowing that I'm positive with hepatitis b. I cried every night as I think my family's future. My employer was very kind that she still ran several exams for second opinions, but still, nothing's changed. I didn't know where I got this but that's no longer important. My very good employer tried everything but has nothing to do about it. She told me that l am welcome to go back, with her expense, once I get better and healthy again. I had researched this disease and I am hopeful that this will be curable. Now I'm back in the Phil's for treatment and got no idea where to go and to find a doctor specialized with this. Any recommendation would be of great help. I'm currently in metro manila. Thanks everyone. #Godspeed

Hi,

I would recommend any doctors who are member of hepatology society of the philippines. http://www.liverphil.org/

Career wise, I would say you better find a job somewhere else (non- middle east). Or, if you have decent job here here in PH it would be better just to stay here near your family.
