Answer 1

please refer to a gastroenterologist if u r sincere with your complaint and dont waste time posting everyday questions on answer section unless u have a taboo or something where u live about contracting blood born diseases or u r afraid to be judged as a bad guy,or hiding something ,,all that doesnt matter and remember that u have to be clinically examined for your own sake and not staying infront of your computer complaining u cant and no one can judge a clinical case by posting answers to u ..

Answer 2

Are you continuing to post due to concerns? or are you just learning about this disease? or are you simply just trying to challenge the people on some recently learned info?
Hepatitis B core antibody (IgM and IgG) are markers of hepatitis infection. The anti-HBc(IgM) is most useful as a marker for Hepatitis B infection in the window between the time that the surface antigen,HBsAg, disappears AND the time that the antibody to the surface antigen, anti-HBs, appears. The presence of anti-HBc(IgM) indicates current infection. The presence of anti-HBc(IgG) indicates previous infection and persists indefinitely.

*sorry if my inquiry seemed harsh. You should be seen by an infectious disease specialist with an interest in hepatitis or a gastroenterologist with an interest in hepatitis or an internist (internal medicine physician) with an interest in hepatitis. Regardless of how you were infected (it may be quite innocent on your part), you should be seen by a physician. I do not know how it works outside of the U.S.. In the U.S. you should ask whether the physician follows and treats hepatitis patients when you schedule your appointment. Most larger cities have special clinics at the teaching institutions specifically for liver disease and hepatitis.
It would be best for you to seek their advise regarding the course of your disease and its communicability to others.
As to why the Red Cross would not advise you to seek medical treatment and advise, I can only wonder.

Hepatitis is the Latin word for liver inflammation. Type B hepatitis is caused by a virus called hepatitis B virus. Other types of infectious liver inflammation include hepatitis A and hepatitis C.


pe B hepatitis is highly infectious and can, in rare cases, be spread among family members without sexual contact or contact with infected blood. In these cases, the virus is probably spread by toothbrushes or kissing.


The virus can also be contracted by a person, mostly healthcare workers, accidentally pricking themselves with a contaminated needle.


Type B hepatitis is commonly seen in drug users, homosexual men, immigrants from countries in Asia and South East Asia (where hepatitis is very common) - and their sexual partners.


The incubation period, from the time of exposure to the virus until the onset of the disease, is two to six months. Early symptoms include poor appetite, lack of interest in food, nausea, aching muscles and joints, and mild fever.

Later symptoms include yellowing of the skin, mucous membranes, and white portions of the eyes (jaundice, icterus); light-coloured stools; and dark urine.

When the late symptoms have developed, the patient usually begins to get better.

In approximately 1 out of 20 patients, the infection becomes chronic. Patients with chronic type B hepatitis may have only mild symptoms, such as tiredness, aching muscles and joints and periodical pressure below the right ribs from the enlarged liver.

Approximately one fifth of the patients develop cirrhosis over a number of years which may result in liver failure and other serious complications.

On average, cirrhosis develops 15 years after the virus has been contracted. Newborn babies show no symptoms of acute hepatitis. However, in around 90 per cent of the cases, the infection becomes chronic.


Vaccination, which is very effective against type B hepatitis, is available (Engerix B or HBvaxPRO). A person receives three injections in all. The last two are administered one and six months after the first injection.
