Since you are in ahmedabad. Few suggestions. 1) continue treatment of hep b 2) fibroscan can help you get the assessment of liver stiffness in case you don't have ascites on usg. 3) liver transplant is an option when liver decompensates but you need to enroll early on as waiting period is long in most centres 4) get consultation from Dr. sanjay rajput. He is expert gastro in ahmedabad.

Hi, from the details provided by you, I understand that you have cirrhosis of liver with chronic hepatitis b infection as the cause. You do not seem to have developed complications of portal hypertension viz. Gi bleed (blood in vomitus or stools), ascites (collection of fluid/water in stomach) or hepatic encephalopathy (drowsiness, transient loss of consciousness) etc. You need to continue with anti-viral medications for hepatitis b and cardivas along with regular screening and follow up with blood tests (every 3 to 6 months), ultrasound of abdomen (every 6 months) and surveillance endoscopies. Liver transplant is usually needed once you start developing complications or liver cancer (hcc) and is decided by your gastroenterologist/ hepatologist based on several parameters and scores (meld score.)

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. A positive hbsag test result means that you are infected and can spread the hepatitis b virus to others through your blood. Anti-hbs or hbsab (hepatitis b surface antibody) - a "positive" or "reactive" anti-hbs (or hbsab) test result indicates that a person is protected against the hepatitis b virus.
