No connection between Hep b and fatigue!!!. This is what my doc said
i had an appointment with my doctor (he is a professor in infectious diseases). I asked him whether inactive hep b causes fatigue or not. his answer was NO. well, then how come i feel worn out all time. If you read about hep b symptoms you will find fatigue as the most common symptom of Hep B.
I also, asked him if it is possible to become inactive carrier within one year of exposure to Hep B. his answer was yes, there is a possibility. do you believe that?
I think this doc just wants to get away with my questions. I don't know
I appreciate your input

sounds like you might be right, or you found a doc that is uninformed about hep B. I would consider getting another opinion.
if you have not seen this, you might want to check the FAQ section:
http://www.hepb.org/
if you have a viral load, then you could be having symptoms, but if there is no virus, I am not sure why your body would be reacting with fatigue.
I hope you find answers, maybe the above site has a Q&A section also.

It would appear that this thread should be posted to the Hepatitis B topic area instead of the Hepatitis C area.
Grand oak, this IS the hep b area, and the AIH, and ALL hepatitis. THere is only ONE hepatitis forum in MH and this is it.
While the forum displays all posts to any topic area, there are individual topic areas to which a post can be directed. Please check the "Topic Area" at the top of the thread, or if making an initial post for a thread look at the drop down list of topic areas one can select towards which to direct their question to fully understand what I am refering to.
Perhaps this is one reason why we see entire threads whacked when a complaint is raised against it and it is found that the entire thread is Off Topic for the Topic Area to which it was posted.
This is one example of a post, which by it's very subject claims to be Hep B related, which has been posted to the "Hepatitis C" Topic Area.

I might add that this is why I suggest to MH that they add the Topic Area to the information displayed for threads in the Forum so one can more easily see those which are targeted to a particular area.
As cuteus mention AIH and such, it might also be a good idea for them to also add these as Topic Area's for posting too.

they all come HERE! no matter what field you choose in the topic, they all end up here, GO. There is no separate forums for hepatitis, there is only one, this one. the topic selection is for archives purpose only. If you go to archives, you see them separated, but before that happens they ALL come through here.
take care
take care
many moons ago, when this subject came about, as it does ocassionally, I tested the statement./ No matter which one I chose, hep b, c, d, etc, it always sent me here, to this forum. in archives, you see most questions come from this forum and a few from the gastro forum, where the dr answers questions.
New posters get confused when we tell them to post in the hep b forum or the AIH forum, because there is no such thing.
you stay well

I am well aware that all post, irregardless of topic area, are displayed together in THIS forum. Please read my other post about displaying topic area as well as subject/to and nickname for postings displayed.
Also, from the archive rational, does it help to make a Hep B post to the Hep C topic area only to have it lost in the wrong area of the archive. This IS exactly why I was pointing this out! To help a new person find the information more readily in the archives, not necessarily within the forum as the thread display does NOT show the "Topic Area", which is the enhancement suggestion I made to MH when they asked for feedback.
Finaly, I never said to post it to a different "Forum", I said "Topic Area". Heck I even enclosed it in quotes hoping to avoid this type of confusion. But alas, that does not seem to have helped at all.

No matter what topic area a poster chooses, ALL their posts post here. Selecting a different topic area heading does not do anything at all, no matter which topic area you select your post will show up here.
this person made a hep b post to the hep b area, not the hep c area. It came here, to the Hepatitis forum area, as all of the others do. There is no hep division. I guess we are not understanding each other. i will let someone else take over the explaining.
be well

Kalio:
I fully understand that all posts irregardless of the topic get seen in the forum and I've conceded that point several times. This is why I identified a suggestion to MH to add topic areas to the subject and nick display for the forum postings. However, as cuteous pointed out, they are archived differently and hence THIS thread would seem to be getting posted to the "Hepatitis C" topic vault NOT the "Hepatitis B" topic vault.
Cuteus:
Please look at the "Topic Area:" header when you post. Does it say "Hepatitis C" or "Hepatitis B"? If the former, then how can you claim it was to the latter? If the latter, then for some reason it shows up as the former when I post.
If I look at the second line of the header when I open this thread I see "Topic: Hepatitis C" on the second line. In fact, here is what is at the header of this thread when I open it:
Forum: The Hepatitis Forum
Topic: Hepatitis C
Subject: No connection between Hep b and fatigue!!!. This is what my doc said
And I KNOW, I KNOW, I KNOW that all posts go to the SAME FORUM display, but, as cuteous pointed out and unless we are mistaken on our understanding on how it works, they are archived differently and hence THIS thread would get posted to the "Hepatitis C" topic and NOT the "Hepatitis B" IN THE ARCHIVE. But hey, if no one uses the archives anyhow, I guess the point is mute and if posts are only scanned rather than read, this whole discussion seems to be mute.

maybe this particular member is confused? he might think that he will not come here if he chooses hep b? or, his cursor went too far. Some people do look in archives and I have seen hep c related posts in the Miscellaneous, Hep a, and STD. No idea how they got archived that way. I guess the redeeming quality is that this title identifies it as hep b, for easy recognition. I don't know if a program can be made to correct members errors in topic selection, though. So we are more or less on the same page. Perhaps this member can explain a bit further?
only a monitor could track the posts and direct them to the correct area? or is there software that can do that for a nominal fee?
now, yo comprendo your concern. TY

Thanks for seeing where I was coming from with my post.
I do realize that some members, apparently not just the newer ones, may not realize why there are, or that there are, different topic areas.
This is precisely why I made my initial post, to help someone who appeared to be a newer member understand there is a difference. It may also help others who may not be aware of the different topic areas realize there are and understand what difference it makes to post to the different areas.
As I occasionaly do use the archives, I, like you apparently have as well, noticed that the Topic Area was not, or incorrectly, being used in many cases. Thus making it harder to locate old threads when they've scrolled off the Forum display and are only retrievable from the archives.

I think you are putting words into the Dr's mouth in order for you to feel like you are right and he is wrong.
You neglect to also tell us that you are an inactive carrier. That is what the Dr was referring to . If you were acute or active carrier he would have said differently.
Do some research on the internet. I have tried in the past to show you there are many reasons for fatigue including low testesterone levels.
One article I read says that fatigue may be a trigger your body learnt when you really did have active Hep B and now your body is overreacting to stimuli. It is no longer the Hep B causing it but a learned response of your body. You have to decouple it somehow and one of the ways is with anti-depressants.

Hi Jboyhk, thank you. You have been a great help to me.
I think you are right fatigue may be a trigger my body learnt when I had active Hep B and now my body is overreacting to stimuli. my Doc suggested me to go on anti-depressants. I'll see how it goes.
actually I am not aware of the fact that low testesterone levels cause fatigue. I'll talk to me Doc about that.
