acute case?

hi, can i check, cos i'v had jaundice few wks ago, and now they dont look yellow anymore except when i stretch my hands or cringe my feet,they appear yellowish. does it mean i have jaundice? cos my doc could not give me an answer..

i'v had a blood test which is result due in two wks. jus hope to clarify befor i get my results..

if i am diagnosed with hep b, is it true that my immune system can clear the virus on its own? meaning it will jus go away, even without medical treatment?
can i jus eat right,and exercise? and the virus will go away?

thank u for ur ans..

You have 90-95% chance.  Be liver friendly:

    *  Avoid drinking alcohol. Alcohol speeds the progression of liver disease.
    * Avoid medications that may cause liver damage. Your doctor can advise you about these medications, which may include over-the-counter (OTC) medications as well as prescription drugs. It's especially important to avoid using acetaminophen (Tylenol, others), which can cause liver damage even in healthy people.
    * Eat the healthiest diet you can. Eat fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains and lean protein. Healthy foods help keep you strong, give you more energy and support your immune system. If you're nauseated, try eating small meals throughout the day. Choose foods that are soothing and easy to digest, such as soups, broths or a plain baked potato. A registered dietitian can be especially helpful if you have weight loss or trouble eating.
    * Get regular exercise. Exercise helps increase your strength and energy levels.
    * Get enough sleep. Rest when you need to.

Best.

Only lab readings can tell if you are recovered.
