Pos Hep B Core Antibody
by Fyter, Oct 22, 2001 12:00AM
I recently had a hep panel drawn in preparation for an upcoming fight (boxing). I came up positive for Hep B surface antibodies as well as Hep B core antibodies. I am also in the medical field but not directly exposed to blood or body fluids and have had the hep b immunizations series. My question is there any potential for me to transmit hep B to another boxer if I get cut? Or is that even a possibility? Also, my antigens were negative but because I have positive core antibodies does this mean that my antigens will eventually turn positive?
