Please Docter, i tested positive to Hepatitis B a year ago but i am not sick in any way. I left for school last year and it was the school s requirement that i present a medical report about myself and this report was to be conducted by the school itself. After their test i was not given any feedback on my health until last two month tha the school s Docter told us in an open forum that some of us had Hepatitis B but that we can not transmit it to anyone. My question is how did i then get infected, What are my chances,what is the way forward and lastly how dangeriouse is tis to my health. Am 28years old with a pregnant wife who is negative. Am also a male. I have not had any treatement

Hell. Welcome to Chat Doctor forum. HEPATITIS -B is a series and devastating health issue in INDIA. There are 45 million cases in INDIA and are ranked after china. Chronic HBV infection - 4% of population. It is a serious issue in sense of economics, infectivity,cirrhosis and cancer.3/4 of HBV in India is through mother baby transmission. Natural history of HEP-b depends upon the host immune response. Vigorous immune response results in acute hepatitis(ALT more than 400) and it results in either death or in 95% cases recovery.5% cases become carrier, cirrhotics,cancer etc. Get yourself investigated for Lots, ultrasound abdomen and HBV- DNA. If ALT raised then get a liver fibrosis or biopsy done. Treatment available is in form of viral suppressive like ENDEAVOR, TENOFOVVIR AND TELMIVUDINE and IMMUNOMODULATORS like PEG- IFN. BE in touch with your Gastroenterologist for the guidance and treatment. Thanks and good luck.
