Patient's question:
Consulting about the meaning of hepatitis B surface antibody 12.60, thank you, doctor. The meaning of hepatitis B core antibody 3.92, thank you, doctor.Doctor's answer:
From your report, everything looks fine. Having hepatitis B surface antibodies is actually a good thing, as it means your body has already developed antibodies, so you won't be at risk of hepatitis B infection in the future. A positive hepatitis B core antibody indicates that you have previously been infected with the hepatitis B virus, and it is likely that the virus has been completely cleared from your body. This antibody acts like a marker, signifying that the virus has entered your body. In fact, having hepatitis B is not as as it may seem. Patients should believe that they can overcome the illness. If treated promptly in the early stages, the chances of alleviating symptoms and recovering are very high.
