Hello! Recently, a blood test for HBsAg showed that I have hepatitis B. But a marker of DNA - HBV in plasma and blood cells are not found, a marker of anti-HBcor Ig M and HBe-Ag negative. Ultrasound no change in the liver did not reveal. Hepatitis B, I since 2001. The doctor is no cure does not appoint. How to understand the situation and should there be still any treatment? Thank you.
