Dear bahsou. There are already a number of drugs that can treat hepatitis B. I wish you good luck in finding a doctor who will put you on one of these drugs as soon as possible. That way you and your liver will stay healthy enough to see your little girl grow up.

Dear Bahsu.

Hepatitis C and Hepatitis B are different and require different drug treatments. Hepatitis C has been curable for many years, initially with interferon and now with drugs that prevent replication of the virus and can cure the patient in 12 weeks.

As I understand from your first post, you, like me, have Hepatitis B. The drugs we take are antivirals. They are not designed to "reduce inflammation", they work by suppressing the virus and preventing the virus from replicating.

I'm sure pharmaceutical companies continue to research new drugs, but I do recommended that in the meantime you get yourself on treatment with an antiviral such as Lamivudine. Also I recommend you have your immediate family tested and vaccinated against Hep B. Good luck.

Dear Bahsu. I don't know what country you are living in or where your doctor is, but with a viral load of 2500 in the UK you would be put on antiviral treatment, now, today, immediately. At that level your liver is being damaged daily by the virus and will only get worse. I would be tempted to find a different doctor/hospital who will put you on Hep B treatment. my viral load was only 123 and I developed liver cancer.

Really dear Bolly your message too shocking for me really I am sorry for you because your disease developed has this stage J hopes for the good for you and J will like to know how that occurs the things with you if you allow me J lives the town of Marrakech in Morocco My attending doctor  is a specialist in liver and I am under his monitoring since March 2013 the date to discover my disease I remember well qu it m said once the danger starts when the quantity of the virus in blood from 2000 while increasing for my case the maximum is 2500 

After it did it descend until 1600 then m said qu it should be waited a little until the virus avtive well for me prescribes the drug because C is a malicious virus but I just to understand you and at the same time to make the comparison with your case??? In any case tomorrow J will consult another Medical specialist of liver for I catch up with if there is an error of diagnosis and for treatment made by my doctor I thank you much dear Bolly. Expects my news......
