I believe you will find some good answers here.

I would ask your doctor for a fibroscan.

what is the deference between fibroscan and fibrotest or is it the same thing?
In 2010 I had a biopsy and it was F1, since then I have been taking viread and if not all but most of the time my hbvdna was und or <20, my alt <24 and ast <17.
Now I just got my fibrotest and it came at F3 (advance stage)
I thought with low hbdna and normal ALT The Fibrosis should have been less. Is there anything I am doing wrong to cause it or is there anything I can do to reverse it? Your thoughts please
