hepatitis b positive
I am 22 years now..I have hepatitis b positive since my childhood..still din't took any medications..what will be first step to eradicate this virus..what shall I do ? please kindly suggest me
Varsa... can u give me price of all tests?? And how much time it will take for all tests??
Yes u will find there everything at a very cheap rate and dr nageswar reddy is best there consult him
Is above mentioned tests are available in Asian institute of gastroentology in Hyderabad.....
Visit some very good hbv specialist like ilbs delhi or asian institute of gastro hydrabad. Your doc is completly ignornt.basic rules is do fibroscan hbv dna real time pcr and hbeag test. And liver funtion test also. If there is any damage in liver found from fibroscan then meddicine start. So visit some good gastro doc first.
I don't believe an ultrasound now is as useful as liver functions and viral load tests.
I consulted a doctor he told me to do ultrasound for liver..to find out the abnormalities of liver...
Chronic Hepatitis B has several phases, so first thing you must do is to know where you are at and what is the state of your liver.
1. Check your HbeAg, HBeAb status;
2. Your viral load (hbvdna);
3. Your liver functions (ALT, AST, etc).
These are the standard tests and minimum.
The followings are also desirable:
1. Fibroscan
2. quantitative Hbsag.
