Can HbsAg ( the surface protein ) harm your liver, even with HBV-DNA undetectable?
I am asking this because even my ALT (26 ui/l) and AST (17 ui/l) was like this in past 2 years my fibrosis score got worsened ( ARFI score increased from last year 1,34 m/s (F2) to 1.71 m/s (F3).
Other tests: GGT - 10.72 (0-55)
Alkaline phosphatase - 46.85 (40-270)
Total bilirubine - 1.03 ( 0.20-1.20)
PLT - 214.64 (150-450)
I m waiting for HbsAg quantitative , last year was ~ 25.000 ui/ml.
Cheers!
