Hi doc, I must have had hep b since birth, am a male ,50 yrs old today. Viral count is 6million, enzymes levels are normal, I am a pre-core mutant - i dont know what this means though. E antigen is -ve, antibody for e is +ve. I feel well all the time, sometimes only a bit tired. Do you think treatment is necessary coz i dont wish to take tenofovir for life! Thanks for your time, regards, shawn
