Yes, my fibroscan reading is good enough at this moment, although one year ago ws 7.6kp (F2), seems to have improved for some reason, even if my status was the same. Glad to hear that you are doing ok.
Thank you for your input .
Thank you for your answers. It is so hard to make a decision, knowing that you will have to take pills for years to come. I was hoping that i will be able to try peginterferon and maybe be in the 35% which become HbeAg negative, but i will just go with my doctor's choice i guess. He was willing enough to take a second look at my case and made another appointment, so at least he had an interest in my case more than some doctors would do.
I will keep you updated with my final treatment.
I am on treatment with entecavir from five years feeling no side effects just use of one medicine in morning and monitoring every year once.
i know that you have to take it for many years once you've started taking nucs. Anyway, doctor just called me before taking the first pill and asked me to come back again after reviewing some studies which found that this strategy is not that successful, to re'think the treatment. Probably either nucs or directly Peginterferon.
Did any of you guys took peginterferon at such a high viral load? i know it's only 35% chance of going hbe negative, but it may be worth it to have some time until starting nucs.
The only question taking peginterferon when having hbvdna in millions is, Can ALT flare get so high that will put my liver in serious condition and irreversible ? Are there any studies on this matter ?
I appreciate any response.
I started viread around 30 when my hbv dna spike exponentially, there is a newer replacement pill, TAF or vemlidy, suppose to be kidney friendly. anti-viral suppression pill viread/vemlidy, once started, suppose to be taken lifelong until hbsag seroconverted, otherwise, hbv virus will cause strong flare
