Hard to answer:  who are they?  what is this condition?  who is your employer?  your country?  its law?

i have jaundice,which is the classic symptom of hepatitis right?

--You can't be sure, you may not even have hepatitis.  Only your test can tell.

is it very likely i have it?

--Possible but not sure.

who will be able to access to my med records?

--Persons you give permission to, unless you are under 18.

is it very rare for transmission in households?

--It is not common.

--Usually your test results will be in your records.

The household contacts you described usually do not transmit, unless the source of the virus is in acute state.

The best way to protect you and your little brother is to get tested and know what needs to be done.  After that you will be less worried.

Best.
