Your doctor was trying to see if it is acute or chronic. Maybe he want to also see the trend and how it change

I went for Hbv test on 23nov14 and was positive. My liver test was over the skies.. Six months later, my liver test is all within range but I still have Hbv. Why did my doc ask me to do another test in 6months. Are my results very bad?
HbsAg.  Reactive
Hbs anti < 10.0mIU/mL
HB e Ag Non-Reactive

HBV DNA: IU/ml :      6.64E+03
HBV DNA Log:          3.82
HBV DNA copies       3.86E+04
HBV (log  copy/ml:     4.59
She said to do a liver scan and the same blood test again.
Is there any hope for full recovery?
Please help

HEPATITIS B
Hep B Surface Ag W/Reflex Confirm---REACTIVE*------NON-REACTIVE

They don't seem to know if HBSAG is reactive or not and neet confirmation? You should ask your lab or dr as the result is not complete I believe.

HEPATITIS B
Hep B Surface Ag W/Reflex Confirm---REACTIVE*------NON-REACTIVE

it is not clear, is it reactive or not reactive?

hbvdna pcr test?

even in the case you have hbv you have no active infection, check if hbsag is reactive or non reactive
