Question

I'm trying to figure out if theres any link between IBS and chronic sinusitis. I've been dealing with IBS for the past 2 years and around the same time my sinus problems began. I also noticed candida overgrowth in my oesophagus and patches on my skin, especially around my shoulder, chest, stomach, and back area. After struggling with balanitis treatment for months, I ended up needing surgery. Ive tried everything from seeing different doctors to changing my diet and practicing yoga, but my IBS symptoms havent really gotten better. Lately, Ive observed that when my sinus issues calm down, my digestion seems to improve as well. Could there be a connection between these issues?

Question

I'm really concerned about a friend who recently got their blood test results back. They tested positive for Hepatitis B, and I'm trying to understand what the results mean. The results showed a Hepatitis B viral load of 940 IUml with a log value of 2.97, and the viral load was 5471 copiesml. I'm not sure if these numbers are high or what they indicate. Could you help me interpret if the results are positive or negative for Hepatitis B? I'm really anxious to get some clarity on this.
