I have been HBsAg positive. I had a blood test on December 12, and it was still positive. My wife is currently pregnant, but her blood test result is negative for HBsAg. Is there any danger to her or the baby? Please let me know.

Since your wife is HBsAg negative and presumably vaccinated, the risk is low. The baby will need the hepatitis B vaccine and immunoglobulin at birth. Inform your gynaecologist.

Attached are my LFT reports. I see that my bilirubin level is much higher than the normal range. What should I do to reduce the bilirubin levels? Should I use any medication? Currently, I am on statin medication for high cholesterol.

Hello doctor, I recently got my LFT done and the results are as follows: SGOT: 45 SGPT: 46 Bilirubin (Direct): 0.6 Bilirubin (Indirect): 0.5 Total Bilirubin: 1.1 Alkaline Phosphatase: 299 On my lab report, it is mentioned as A108 306C and C 210 810. Could you please let me know if these results are within the normal range? Should I continue any medicines or take any syrup for this?
