Hep B - "Inconclusive"

My Hep B test came back as "Inconclusive", I have to retest in 10 days..First off, why do I have to wait 10 days? And should I be really concerned? I haven't done any of the things on the list to contract it that i know of. Just has me really nervous. ;-(

it is probable that very old tests with very poor sensibility hve been used, if you want to be tested by the best machines that in europe are routine since 2000-2004 ask for abbott architect machine or siemens Enzygnost HBsAg 6.0 assay

you need to test the following:
hbsag
hbsab
hbcab igg
hbcab igm
hbvdna pcr

hbv is aquired at birth, as adult only compromised immne system gets to cronic
if you like you can take hbv vaccine too in the meantime, it won t make any bad eather case infected or not while possibly making you immune before the onset of hbv

hbv takes some weeks to infect bone marrow and macrophages before getting to the liver and you can get vaccine to work in themeantime

you can also post here tests results, assays and sensibility should be written in the lab results, so we can confirm if they used cra* machines (just to make money on people's health)
