hep b from kissing

I just resently found out I have hep b after falling ill. Now I'm still a virgin and have never used needle drugs. Also, I should mention that I hadnt been to the doctor, dentist, hospital a year before I found out I had hep b. The only exposure I had was the french kiss and I dont even know if she has hep b. Most websites I go to say its not possible to get it by kissing, or at least next to impossible. I was wondering if there is others that got hpv from kissing or if I'm the only one? It would kinda be nice to know I'm not the only one in the history of hpv to get it from kissing. By the way I'm not sure if I have cronic or acute, I didnt even understand alot about hpv until my doctor tested me for it, but this site has been a great resource.

you mentioned in this post that the only exposure u had was french kissing.
but in ur other posts u have mentioned about unprotected oral sex with a prostitute.That means your at high risk.
Even though experts have told oral sex is a very low risk for hepatitis b transmission it is possible.
i think u hav got it from oral sex than french kissing ..
plz do keep posted abt ur hbv status
r u chronic or ur cleared it ?
