@Opa

Maybe if I can ask, do you live normal life free from pain?. Do u ever eat fried food most especially meat. Because this is shattered me out a lot since evey food I eat goes through oil.

Hi @Opa,

Just to clarify, most people with Hep B don’t have any obvious symptoms (which is a problem for diagnosis - only about 10% of people with Hep B know they have it). I haven’t experienced many symptoms myself and live a pretty normal life.

Re: food. It might be good to go through these threads: Food, Activity, and habits alternatives guid and Lifestyle changes, nutrition, and supplements for hep b - #34 by Jason_Escalera. It is not necessary to cut out all oil completely (your body does need some fats/oils to survive), but instead the recommendation is making sure that you have a balanced diet that isn’t too much of one thing.

Next week, I’ve booked another blood test to check how the hep b infection is going, if the viral load is up or down etc. [/quote]
