Do u know if HBEag -ve has more chances to develop cirrosis and HCC than than the HBEag +ve????

If I do interferon how many probabilities of succes do I have  in % ( if my HBSag is lower than 1000 )  ?????

I DONt understand why u said that HBEag -ve is very bad becouse many therapies have for objective HBE seroconversion ins't is?

only hbsag level in iu/ml and genotype can predict chances to clear

i ll try peg intf when hbsag reaches a good level, mine is still too high at 3600iu/ml and since there was no response to imiquimod intf also peg is unlikly to work

of course, as all of us, the hopes are on fast approval of myrcludex

you dont look like a mutated hbsag, hbsab at 3miu/ml is still not protective and not totally unusual on hbv carriers, to know what is happeining we need hbsag quantity in iu/ml or full hbv genome test with the hbsag mutations (this is availabl e in some big italian hospitals which are research center too) but nayway we dont need to check hbsag mutations, it is not your case because hbsab is till too low

check hbsag level and if less than 1000iu/ml you can clear in weeks by pegintf plus zadaxin or plus simvastatin, once hbsag is undetactable hbv vaccine plus zadaxin should boost hbsab to more than 1000miu/ml and you ll be clear
