I’m hepatitis B positive and I was so depressed when I learned that I had it. I did research and I found your site. Thank you! I know where I got it: I got it from my boyfriend who undergoes dialysis, but I’m worried about my baby now. I know he’s positive also. Thank you for the information! It really relieves my depression and I have learned a lot more! More power to you! God bless you all! Published: November 09 ::

I went to the emergency room with severe stomach pains after spending a weekend at home vomiting and feeling very tired. I was told I had hepatitis B and was admited in the hospital where I spent 10 days - Symptoms were vomiting, constant nausia, no appetite, jaundice, dark urine and extreme exhaustion. I went home where it took 8 more weeks before I was well enough to go back to work. I have been back at work about 4 weeks and continue to have slight pains in my stomach and tiredness. I'm on 1 mg of Baraclude daily and my doctor tells me I will have to be on this the rest of my life to "prevent the spread/dammage in my own body." I did have a liver biopsy done and was told there was some liver damage. Published: October 08 ::

I had hepatitis B twice: Once when I was 10 years old, and it lasted about a month; and at 18, when it lasted about three months. I had no idea that I carried the virus until I was almost 33 years old. I can't imagine why I would not be told this after having been so sick with it, but I haven't had any real effects from it that I know of. I think I must be a healthy hepatitis B carrier because I don't know of any symptoms. I notice three things that are annoying and I now wonder if it has anything to do with the hepatitis B virus. For one, I am nauseous a lot, I don't heal well with bruises, and I am tired a lot. For the most part though, I feel really well. Published: September 10 ::

I got Hepatitis B back in 2004. I was feeling tired all the time (really tired), and then it started to feel as though I got hit by a truck. I didn't think much of it and thought it may be the flu. So one day, I was talking to my friend and she said that I looked yellow! Well, long story short, I went in and had Hepatitis B. I had got it three weeks before, and it was in very, very high levels. I was in the hospital for over a week and then I went home. I was sick for about two months. I had a liver biopsy, and it damaged my liver, but I am good now. So here I am, five years later. I’m doing well, and you can't even tell by looking at me that anything was ever wrong with me. Published: September 10 ::

I tested positive to Hepatitis B when I wanted to donate blood for my pregnant wife just last wee. After all the necessary blood screening, I was told I could not donate because I got a positive result from a Hepatitis B test, even though I've never had any symptoms up to this moment. My doctor told me I am just a carrier, and that I might not be affected but could infect others. I've been placed on some antiviral medications, but now my fear now is my unborn child. I’ve come across this site when I used Google to search Hepatitis B, to learn more about the virus, the causes, symptoms and the latest treatment available. Published: November 02 ::

I checked my status in April of this year. The doctor told me that I have hepatitis B, and he didn’t explain anything. I asked my friend about it and she told me to visit your site. I don’t have any of the signs or symptoms that I read here, and I’m wondering if the results of the test could have been wrong. Published: October 15 ::

It's about six years ago that I tested positive to hepatitis B. Even though I have not seriously fallen sick as a result, I occasionally experience feverish and fatigue. What rather beat my imagination is the fact that my fiancée who has been sick with a fever on a regular basis has tested negative to about four hepatitis B tests even though I had had unprotected sex with her.
