The test for Hep-B and -A are both blood tests. They are pretty accurate and there is minimal risk of doing the test.
It is much, much better to find out if you have this disease, so that your doctor can treat you in a way that is safest for the baby.

Thats strange. My Dr. takes like 6 tubes of blood from me only on the first visit and tests for EVERYTHING all at once. I don't understand why your Dr. is doing it this way and putting all this scarey stress on you. I would ask him why they didn't do all of this at once.

Maybe its your gall bladder over reacting to something your eating or drinking.
