Kind of confused
Bare with me let me explain. I went to the dermatologist on 3/24/15 because I have had a sore on the top of my scalp plus I have a real bad case of seborrheic dermatitis and because my face is red. Mostly my cheeks and nose.
After her asking me a few question and also looking at my back and chest she told me she didn't think the red on my face was rosacea and that she was going to order blood work. I have been to dermatologist before and have never had them send me for blood work. She said she thought I could have lupus. But I noticed on the lab sheet she also wanted a hepatitis b test.
I don't understand why a dermatologist would even order test like this.
Should I be worried?? Or is this common for dermatologist to run tests like this.

vit d stays sufficient only if you the indefinitely at the right dose for you to keep the levels (only tests will tell right dose which is 5000-10.000iu daily), as you stop it goes back to deficiency unless you live outside on the sun most of the day
only daily vit d is good, if you take weekly or monthly it does not work and worsen health because it goes up and down...after few days it goes deficient in the tissues, only way to have it stable is daily or almost daily

vitd25oh is vitimun D? five years ago my doctor at the time did a vit D test and it was so low he put me on 50000 iu which I had to get through the pharmacy I probably took that for a month and just never refilled my prescription. And haven't had it checked in 5 years. I got the blood test back for everything else except the hep. I don't know why they would give me all the results back except for that one that was the lab they have an app on android so I haven't actually gotten anything back from the doctor. But I know if anything was pos for that she would call. So I'm not worried about that.
vitd25oh and intact pth are never checked, it also happens some doctors refuse to check it...most diseases can be prevented by keeping high normal vit d and that s a big loss for drug industry...especially cancer, metabolic, liver and kidneys damage

you cant see liver damage from blood tests, ct scans or ultrasound, the only machine to see all grades of liver damage and monitor that along time is fibroscan
I did have some blood work when I had gone to the emergency room a month ago and it worried me a little because my gobulin was high and my a/g ratio was low. Don't know if that plays a role in anything. I guess I will have to wait for the results.
in case of lupus making high normal vitd25oh to 100ng/ml and intac pth low normal 10pg/ml will help resolve or keep under control lupus which is an autoimmune disease, check doctor coimbra protocol on autoimmune disease, you ll find interview on youtube about his university hospital putting on remission autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis on thousands of patients since 10 years.
that full protocol requires expert doctors monitoring but the doses i suggested are normal and require no monitoring

such skin issues can be due to damaged liver too (liver failure on cirrhosis) so she probably ordered that....i also suggest to have a fibroscan to know how your liver is because it is mostly food to damage livers of population
those skin issues can be soved, especially oily skin, by vitamin A retinoids, it is best to use the natural form because the synthetic can be quite toxic.you can find natural retinoids in carlson vitamin A from cod liver oil.if your liver is not damaged you can start with 25.000iu per day for -2 weeks and then lower dose to 25.000iu 3 times a week
it is also very important to take vit d3 at the same time, 10.000iu per day and check your vitd25oh after 1-3months.vitamin A can lower vitamin D so it is important to take both

No I am white. As white as they come. Lol I'm fair skinned. I burn easily with just 1 minute of sun exposure.
If you don't mind me asking: Are you of Asian ethnicity?
I can't see any of your dermatological symptoms as associated with HBV, but then I am not a doctor. Doctors in American are now more aware of prevalent but undiagnosed Hepatitis B infection in the Asian migrant community.
