(Hepatitis B Surface Antigen is Negative)

This means you no longer have HBV now.

( Hepatitis B core antibodies-Positive.)

This means you had exposure to HBV in the past.

anti-hepatitis B surface antibodies (Anti-HBs) 10,4

This means you have weak antibody against HBV.

Yes, it is a good idea to be vaccinated to help your body develop strong immunity.

Is it possible to take vaccinations for B and A at a time?
or  should they  be taken separatly ? can you please tell me the duration of the gape between these  B and A vacinations?

Have you tested Hep A?  If you were exposed to it before, you do not need vaccination against Hep A.

Not sure if vaccinations for A and B can be taken together.
