Sudden Increase in ALT/AST after stopping Ntz and LIv 52 HB increases HbsAg

Hi Stef and Others,

There is a sudden increase in my AST and ALT values after stopping Ntz. I stopped Ntz in August 2011 end and later I started taking Liv52 HB.

Results on Feb-2012:-
ASPARTATE AMINOTRANSFERASE (SGOT )PHOTOMETRY =98.00 U/l M: 0 to 37 - F: 0 to 31
ALANINE TRANSAMINASE (SGPT) PHOTOMETRY = 244.00 U/l M: 0 to 37 - F: 0 to 31

ALKALINE PHOSPHATASE PHOTOMETRY =98.30 U/l M:53 to 128 - F:42 to 98
BILIRUBIN -DIRECT PHOTOMETRY =0.26 mg/dl 0 - 0.3
BILIRUBIN - TOTAL PHOTOMETRY= 0.85 mg/dl 0 - 1.2
BILIRUBIN (INDIRECT) CALCULATED =0.59 mg/dl 0 - 0.9
GAMMA GLUTAMYL TRANSFERASE (GGT)PHOTOMETRY =21.00 U/l M: 0 to 50 - F :0 to 30
PROTEIN - TOTAL PHOTOMETRY =8.30 gm/dl 6.0 - 8.3
ALBUMIN - SERUM PHOTOMETRY= 4.56 gm/dl 3.2 - 5.0
SERUM ALBUMIN/GLOBULIN RATIO CALCULATED =1.22 Ratio 0.9 - 2.0
25-OH VITAMIN D TOTAL= 37.26 ng/ml
HbsAg Quant - 1789 iu/ml



Results on Aug -2011:-
SGOT - 25.90
SGPT - 38.90
HbsAG - 733 iu/ml

Almost SGPT has increased 10 times. Kindly help me. I'm very scared about my situation. If stopping ntz increases ALT ans AST ,we cannot take ntz for life long? please help

he sent me lab result by email but anyway hbvdna pcr has no decimals in the results he just wrote it wrong

his hbvdna is now 651.801copies/ml so his stauts is:
increasing hbvdna, increasing hbsag, increasing ast/alt which confirms the virus is spreding and the alt flare is not immune system fighting but just the virus spreading without immune control

on the contrary if you have increase of alt with decrease of hbsag and hbvdna it means immune system is getting control of hbv infection and killing infected cells

the best scenario is increasing alt flare with hbvdna undetactable and hbsag decrease.this last status reflects the killing of infected cells without any escape for the virus which cannot infect new cells and lose the infected cells which produce hbsg and cccdna

"My HB DNA is 6,518,01 Copies /ml. "

less than 1 = decimals ( in our case 01 wich is less than 1)

whole numbers (units) ar grater than or equal to 1 in our case 6518
