Patient's question:
What is the reason for low globulin and high albumin/globulin ratio in liver function tests for hepatitis B minor positive, while other tests are normal?Doctor's answer:
Hepatitis B may potentially progress to liver cirrhosis in the future. Liver function is primarily assessed through ALT levels, which reflect the condition of your liver. The issue you mentioned regarding low globulin and a high A/G ratio is not significant. It is recommended that you get a quantitative test for hepatitis B DNA at a regular hospital to monitor how the virus is active. For severe hepatitis B patients, it is advised to seek medical attention promptly and follow the doctor's recommendations for timely treatment. Avoid changing medications arbitrarily, as this may lead to counterproductive results.
