[|Human|] Sir, When i went to donate blood to my sister on 20-12-2006,Blood screening found that the HBSAg is Positive in it.After that i consulted doctor for monitoring and general check up and the complete tests were done.

Pl give me your advise about this and futher what steps could be taken in future Doctor told that its dint effect my liver as of now as the liver tests are normal , so treatment is not required for this condition,
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for your query. We feel that you are an inactive Hepatitis carrier. An inactive Bag carrier is defined by having the presence of Bag in serum, no detectable Head, low HBV DNA (less than 10,000 to 100,000 copies/mL), and persistently normal ALT levels for more than 6 months. (However the HBV DNA is not done in your case) Reactivation of HBV disease occurs when a person is in the inactive Bag carrier state and develops elevated liver enzyme and HBV DNA levels and, in some patients, detectable Head if the wild type virus is the dominant infection. We would advise you to get the LFT evaluated and the antibodies of anti Cab and BSA done after 6 months. If the Bag is positive after 6 months then you might be going into chronicity which happens in only 10% cases. We would also suggest you to get your wife vaccinated (if married) with Hep B vaccine if she is not yet exposed to. Furthermore you need your child Chat Doctor.  Apart from this We would suggest you to take good nutritious diet. We hope these information would be useful for you in follow up. Please get back to us for father queries or chat with our doctor from 9 to 9 IST daily. Regards
