Re: Hepatitis B, some queries

[Guest guest]

Of those who have acute Hep B, 10% become chronic. Many dont manifest any signs

of acure Hep B esp those who get it at birth or in childhood.

There are 400 million people with chronic Hep B in the World.

HI.Now I get confused.Hep B a chronic disease,meaning that you never clear the

virus?.I know quite a few people who had hep B and they.re all cured.In some

cases the Hep B can become a chronic disease that.s what I.hve been told.I had

Hep B,yellow as a lemon but the diease cleared and I was considered cured as far

as the Hep B concerned. I can search the web but mabye a short answer from the

group will suffice.Willem.

Hi all,

Thanks for the replies guys.

Sorry if I seem ignorant, but I have been told that there is no

treatment for this disease, is this the same as chronic? I have'nt yet

turned yellow, and as I said I feel fine. I only got to know I have

this disease b'cos I donated blood.

Is it true that there is no treatment, to remove this virus from

my blood?

PS - My problems and worries seem trivial to me even, compared to some

others here in this list. But I think maybe, I can understand a little

abt how u ppl feel. I pray to God for u all.
