And my LFT are all with in normaql range and i did not went for fibroscan till now..
the lab made the test correct but didn t make diluition, you have to clearly ask for diluition, these are very lazy stupid guys and i saw this happen to me too in italy years ago
ask money back or hbsag quantitative in iu/ml with diluition
the machine can count hbsag only until 250iu/ml then the tech has to make dilution of the blood sample manually (very stupid task...) so machine can read the actual quantity of hbsag.values are usually 1.000-20.000iu/ml on hbeag negative and much higher on hbeag pos, so as you can see machine will need manual dilution for all the samples because hbsag at 250iu/ml is never found on cronic, at that low level hbv is almost cleared
Hope u had taken those tests in lalpath labs. Send a mail /call the customer care . Ask them to redo the test or refund the money. Clearly specify the that you need HbsAg Quantitative with Dilution.
Test code test for HbsAg Quantitative is S056 . Ask for refund . Actually they should refund.
In lalpath labs they have
S056 - HEPATITIS B SURFACE ANTIGEN; HBsAg; AUSTRALIA ANTIGENScreening only.
S215 - HEPATITIS B SURFACE ANTIGEN (HBsAg),QUANTITATIVE
so which one is the correct one?
