WHAT IS MEANT BY BLOOD TEST" HEPATITIS B SURFACE ANTIBODY NON REACTIVE". DOES IT MEAN THAT THERE IS NO ANTIBODY TO FIGHT THE INFECTION AND ONE SHALL GET HEP B VCCINE?   BS

I would say TREAT since the goal of treatment for chronic e-antigen negative HepB individuals is to supress the DNA to undectable.  Your high DNA indicate that you have a active disease.  ALT tends to fluctuate so normal range doesn't always mean that there is no liver cell damage.
