I also had a Hep B Viral load count done and the result: <20 IU/ml
my god are these doctors or ritarded, the test says less than 20iu/ml because it cannot detect lower than 20, you have no hbvdna
my god they cannot read test results.....change ur doctor right away any person or nurse should understand the result
as long as hbvdna is und you are healthy carrier, the virus is there but make no liver damage, check every 3-6 motnhs
One other thing. I was very sick about two years ago with another problem and very fortunate to find a "naturopath" Dr. who treated me with unconventional medicine...nutrients...cleansing, etc. He also would spend close to an hour with me every time discussing everything to help me understand my condition and options. He was not against traditional medicine by the way....just had alternatives to offer or in conjunction with. I also went to my regular Dr. at the same time....but in the end chose the alternative path and glad I did. He was happy to work with me along with my regular Dr. He would look extensively at my blood work and explain everything to me. I will be seeing him again soon to look at my options.
I really have no advice as I am very new to this...but I have to say this. Never ever be afraid to ask TOO MANY questions. We all have to be proactive with our own health and do our own research. Education is the key to success in all area of our lives. Dr.s to not have the time to learn everything...and all of our situations are individual as no two bodies can be exactly alike. Much luck in finding your answers
