My hepatitis B report is as follows: 1. DNA Quantitative Amount is 42,200 2. HBsAg is Reactive 3. Surface Antigen is Negative 4. LFT is Normal Please advise what steps I should take next. Should I be worried about these results?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A DNA level of 42200 suggests low to moderate viral load. Normal LFT is reassuring. No urgent concern, but regular follow up with a liver specialist is important to monitor liver health and infection status. Visit the doctor with reports
Dr. Shaik Suggests...
Take a HBV Dna Test Test or Take a HBsAg Test (Hepatitis B surface antigen) Test

View allSir, what is this viral load? I am worried about my health. Is hepatitis B curable? My report shows HBsAg provisionally reactive, and the lab has suggested a confirmatory HBsAg test. I have no symptoms mentioned in articles on the internet, but I am feeling very tired, and my weight has drastically reduced from 68 kg to 58 kg. Is this due to hepatitis B? How can I know whether it is acute or chronic? Is it fatal or life-threatening? I am very worried.

I took Fluvoximine CR 100, Venlafaxine, Clofranil 25 all thrice a day and Ativan once a day for one month. I abruptly stopped due to numerous severe side effects. The next day, my blood report showed HBsAg positive. Could this be a result of these side effects and poor immune system caused by the medicines?

I tested HBsAg positive, and my doctor informed me that I was an inactive carrier. My liver function test values have been normal. Recently, I have been experiencing abdominal pain. My latest LFT remains normal, but an ultrasound showed hepatomegaly with a liver size of 162 mm. My SGPT is 40, SGOT is 24, and my HBV viral load is 9,000. I am attaching my report for your review. Please advise what treatment I require.
