My mother has been having persistent fever with vomiting for the past six days. Her blood report shows liver enzymes at 300 which is much higher than the normal level of 35. What could be the possible reason and what precautions should we take in the meantime?

High liver enzymes with fever and vomiting may indicate viral hepatitis or drug-induced hepatitis. Please consult a physician urgently and ensure rest and hydration. Please get an LFT, viral hepatitis panel A, B, E, and an ultrasound abdomen to identify the cause and start appropriate treatment.

My sister, age 40, has stomach discomfort, and her test report for Hepatitis B (Austria Agentio report) indicates a viral infection. The doctor has confirmed that it is caused by Hepatitis B virus.

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?

Dear Sir, I am 27 years old and have been suffering from Hepatitis B for the last 4 years. My recent test reports show: HBsAg: Negative (tested by chromatography) HBsAg: Positive (tested by immunochromatography) HBsAg: Positive (tested by ELISA) I am confused about which result should be considered valid. Could you please clarify?
