Hi,

ESR - Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate
(It is also known as Sed Rate or Sedimentation Rate)

ESR is used to detect the conditions relating to acute and chronic inflammation, including infections, cancers, and autoimmune diseases.  A level of 10 or below would be considered as normal.

Your ESR = 20


CBC - Complete Blood Count
There are no unit in your test result.  I set hereinbelow the level of WBC, Hemoglobin and Platelets for your consideration.

WBC - White Blood Cell Count:
Normal white blood cell count: 4,500-10,000 white blood cells per microliter

Normal hemoglobin values:
Children: 11-13 gm/dl
Adult males: 14-18 gm/dl
Adult women: 12-16 gm/dl

A normal platelet count
between 150,000 to 450,000 per μl(microlitre) of blood(150–450 x 109/L)

hbeag can get negative or positive in any moment only people with particular hbv mutations will never get hbe positive again.what happened to you is normal and you have more or only wild type virus and less or no precore/corepromoter mutations (which is positive)

as regards liver damage hbe negative is better because corepromoter and precore mutations, the ones without hbe, are usually more aggressive

[stef2011]

hbeag positive or negative doesn't mean you are free of cronic (chronic) hbv, on hbe negative you have less replciation.
cronic (chronic) hbv is made by high and low replication periods, do not think you are clearing anything if you are in the low replication period, hbv is still there
