Patient's question:
In 2003, I received the hepatitis B vaccine. In 2006, I was carefully tested and found to have antibodies. If the vaccine I received at that time was a fire-fighting hepatitis B vaccine, could it have caused the hepatitis B test result to show 245 positive?Doctor's answer:
Vaccination will never cause a 245 positive result. Regarding a 245 positive result in the hepatitis B five-item test: 1. You may have once been infected with the hepatitis B virus, which could be due to a history of hepatitis B or asymptomatic infection; 2. The recovery period of acute HBV infection; 3. It is extremely unlikely, but you may still be infectious. Have you had liver function tests? Have you experienced any other discomfort symptoms in your daily life? If it's convenient, you can communicate with me directly online, which will make the exchange of information easier and better address your confusion. In fact, having hepatitis B is not at all. Patients should believe that they can overcome the disease. As long as they receive timely treatment in the early stages, the chances of controlling the condition and recovering are very high.
