Hepatitis B and the H1N1 Vaccine

Hello,

Recentlly I was diagnosed with Hep B.  At this point I am not sure if i'm a chronic carrier or not because my appointment with the specialist is months from now.

Now that the flu season is coming soon and this new virus out there I was wondering if a person with Hepatitis B is considered a person with a "chronic disease".  This will justify getting a H1N1 vaccine.  

At this point they only suggest children, pregnant women, the elderly and those with severe illnesses get the vaccine.  Should those with Hepatitis get the vaccine?

I'm also a hepatitis B carrier with  a low viral load. Since yesterday I am having a flue like symptoms and feeling a bit tired. I'm not sure is it a common cold,  common flu or the new  flu which is around since this year.

Please just be something what I can do for myself. Should I wait and see or discuss with my GP immediately. Right now the symptoms of flu or with low moderate however I'm not an expert to decide
