HBVDNA is still in the low range, less than 2,000 iu/ml. The variation may be due to different labs.
got my HBV DNA quant. report :
9 sep 2015 - 179 IU/ml (different lab)
29 apr 2015 - <6 IU/ml (same lab)
12 Jan 2015 - 126770IU/ml (same lab)
I am worrying about increase in HBV DNA. I missed entecavir one day otherwise i take it regularly. please comment on my report.
HBeAg is 2.806 (5 aug 15). yet to do HBV DNA.
I am skinny one, my BMI is 16.8 and my fat percentage is 15%.
How can I have fatty liver ?
A drop in HbsAg is always good. If your ALT remains normal, damage to your liver, in my opinion, will be minimal or zero. However you should take measures to tackle your fatty liver - better diet and more exercise?
Wait for your hbvdna result.
U have responded well to etv. Once u develop anti hbeag ur hbsag will go further down. U can start peg IFN if ur hbsag falls further down after a few weeks.
I am taking entecavir 0.5mg daily.
My HBsAg value
06 May 2015 - 23119.64 IU/ml
30 jul 2015 - 10495.13 IU/ml
My USG was normal but this time (05 Aug 2015) it shows Grade - I fatty infiltration of the liver .
05 Aug 2015 - ALT/AST - 23/24.
waiting for other reports..
kindly requested to interpret. is it improvement or more damage to liver?
thanking you,
Does hbeag seroconversion indicate change of phase ?
I have checked my report of dec 2013 at blood bank, it was hbsag reactive.
The high level of serum HBsAg is consistent with someone who is in the Immune Tolerance phase.
I got my HBsAG quant. test @Dr. lal path labs in pune, India.
It is 23119.64 IU/ml (6may15). what is the significance of this value?
Thank you.
Is there any chance that my current treatment will make HBsAG non reactive?
You have responded well to ETV, your ALT is normal and your liver is in very good condition. Also your viral load (hbvdna) is very very low. It is possible you are in the transition period from HbeAg positive to HBeAg negative, because your HBeAb is positive, then negative.
All the guidelines suggest you can stop treatment after HbeAg becomes negative and HBeAb becomes positive and a period of consolidation. Discuss with your specialists then. Consider a quantitative HbsAg (use automatic dilution to get a precise number, not just greater 250 iu/ml) to give yourself more information.
When hbsag will negative then u will have to stop entacavir. If u wil stop medicine virus will replicate with huge ammount. U have seroconvert from hbeag positive to hbeag negative. Consult with stef he will guide u in better way
I have consulted three gastroenterologist. One has suggested to start interferon injection. second asked me to start tablet. rest one told me not to start treatment as my sgpt/sgot are normal and wait for other 3 months.
I have started Entecavir 0.5mg on 29jan2015. After 3 months reports are as below:

I am taking Enticavir 0.5mg daily. my doctor has told me to continue with entecavir 0.5mg.
Do I have to continue entecavir after HBeAG becomes non reactive?
Please suggest me how to continue my treatment to make HBsAG non reactive.
What tests to be done to track my treatment ?
Thanking You
