Patient's question:
The doctor forgot which period last year I started taking medicine for poor appetite and constant abdominal pain and nausea. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was discovered that I had chronic hepatitis B. However, I haven't fully recovered yet. Could you please tell me what I should pay attention to?Doctor's answer:
Hepatitis B e antigen-positive (HBeAg-positive) is generally difficult to recover completely. The best treatment goal is clinical remission, which means normal liver function and a negative test result for hepatitis B virus. You can check your liver function now and see if your transaminase levels are normal. If they are normal, then abdominal pain and nausea may not necessarily be caused by HBeAg-positive. It could also be related to absorption issues. Pay attention to your diet, avoid drinking beer, and don't stay up late.
