I'm on TDF and always feeling tired

[Segemenge]

I had und HBV DNA but HBSAG +ve. Doctor placed me on TDF due to 7.4kpa fibroscan score but now I started to really feel tired.
Can I discontinue the TDF or it could be as a result of something else that I am tired?

Maybe you can talk to your doctor about TAF, which is a more efficient version of Tenofovir. Some people have reported feeling much better on it.

No, you can not discontinue tdf, for sure not by yourself, without medical surveillance. You risk virus relapse within next weeks, which in some rare cases may be fatal.
