My name s Le, 67 yrs old, male, retired. Have been diagnosed as chronic hepatitis B about 17 yrs ago, and starting with antiviral meds since 2008, including Hepsera 10mg, one tab/day from 2008-2009. HBV DNA did not improve with Hepsera. From 09-10, treatment included a combination of Hepsera and Baraclude 0.5 mg (once daily). From 2010-present, just only Baraclude was taken and all of HBV DNA tests were thereafter undetected. The liver function tests are within normal range (Alt, Ast). HBsAg s always positive, HBsAb s always negative. HBeAg non-reactive, HBeAb reactive, Hep B core Ab, IgM non-reactive (2010) There are a constant abnormality of CO2 (a bit little higher than normal range), platelete (fluctuates around 114,000-120,000) I have symptoms of fatigue, insomnia, bloating, muscle ache, weakness (2 hands), and frequent cramps (fingers, hands, legs, toes). My main complaint now is a persistent dull ache over right back ( under the bottom end of right scapula), it persists most of the time and makes me not sleep normaly. What about your recommendation? Thank you. Kind regard, Le
