I think you need to have a clear picture of your liver. What's your fibroscan history throughout the years? I don't know how Hep E influences this, but having HBV too, I would act now and go see a specialist as soon as possible. I would personally not wait until F3-F4. You can never know how each one of us reacts long term and acting earlier on, would maybe save preventable complications. As a word of encouragement, I went from 8.6 to 5.5- 6 in less then a year. (Not sure if mine was real, or was inflammation too due to higher ALT). Fibroscan can also be influenced by inexperienced technicians as my doctor said to me, for exp. not placing the probe in the right place.
Sorry to hear about your Hep E co-infection. I think it is important for you to see an HBV specialist (a Hepatologist or at least a gastroenterologist), in a major city even if you have to travel.
There are guidelines for starting HBV treatment and treatment for HBV/HEV. To comment, we need to know at least your HBeAg status(positive or negative), hbvdna viral load., ALT, AST, age and history. Indication of Fibrosis is helpful - Fibroscan score, blood platelet level, non-invasive fibrosis markers. Serum HBsAg quantity will also be very useful.
Guidelines have changed a lot and they are not all that black and white. The trend is to treat early as we now have very good and affordable antivirals such as Entecavir and Tenofovir. A co-infection with HEV definitely requires specialist attention. Also, cirrhosis is the leading cause of HCC, not hbvdna.
All the best.
I just want to say that I find it hard to believe that getting professional HBV treatment seems so difficult in an advanced country like Canada. Canada has some very good HBV researchers. I am also surprised that Fibroscan can measure liver stiffness in different parts of the liver. My understanding is that the probe is placed in one recommended fixed position and it provides an estimate of the stiffness of the whole liver.
