Hepatitis

It is highly unlikely that Hepatitis B would be contracted through sitting on a toilet seat. You would need to have an open cut and the cut come in contact with the infected blood or body fluids.

Hepatitis C goes through an un-known cycle. I am about 60% sure that it is the lytic cycle since it causes Iver disease, although i do not know for sure.

typhoid fever can't be transmitted through a kiss .. but if your immune system is weak then you are likely to gain typhoidal germs.

Hepatitis C is transmitted mainly by blood. This occurs through the sharing of equipment to inject drugs, needle stick injuries in health care workers, and unsafe techniques of body piercing and tattooing. Cocaine snorting can be a source of infection through the sharing of contaminated straws. Only a tiny quantity of virus is necessary for the virus to become established in the case of hepatitis C, si I suppose the answer is yes you can if the person with hepatitis c is a female and she spills menstrual blood on the toilet or if someone cuts himself and spills blood on the toilet.

By body fluids - blood, sexual contact or mother to child.

Prior to the US campaign to immunize all infants about 18,000 cases per year (in the US) were diagnosed in children with no known exposure. It is not known if they were getting it from other kids or other sources.

The Hepatic Function Panel is a group of clinical laboratory blood tests used for the evaluation of a patient with symptoms of liver disease or injury. It includes diagnosis and quantitative assessment of the disease and monitoring the effects of certain medications on the liver. The tests contained in the Hepatic Function Panel are designed to measure multiple aspects of hepatocyte function, including biliary conjugation and excretion, hepatocellular metabolism, and protein synthesis.

The Hepatic Function Panel consists of the following tests:

• Albumin

• Bilirubin; total

• Bilirubin; direct

• Phosphatase; alkaline

• Protein, total

• Transferase; alanine amino (ALT)(SGPT)

• Transferase; aspartate amino (AST)(SGOT)

Once a diagnosis is established, one or several specific tests are usually adequate for monitoring the course of the disease and its resolution.

"Yes, neither pregnancy nor breastfeeding should be considered a contraindication to vaccination of women. On the basis of limited experience, there is no apparent risk of adverse effects to developing fetuses when hepatitis B vaccine is administered to pregnant women. The vaccine contains noninfectious HBsAg particles and should cause no risk to the fetus. HBV infection affecting a pregnant woman might result in severe disease for the mother and chronic HBV infection for the newborn. " from http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/diseases/hepatitis/b/faqb.htm However, if you don't have Hep B and aren't at a risk to get it then you should wait, they don't know for 100% sure it is okay.

Its not fatal in the sense that you completely recover from it at home without medical treatment , in addition to symptomatic treatment , just take bed rest with good diet low in fats along with fruit juices. Mortality is rare, only 0.1% and that only happens when hepatitis A complicates into Fulminate hepatic failure

The injection in above picture is of Hepatitis A vaccine, Havrix. Its given after exposure to virus within two weeks before onset of clinical disease

I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the

liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which

reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus

became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from

ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (ww w.ultimatelifeclinic .com) in March, 2020. Their

treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after

the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing

treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.

you can get infected by using other peoples needle when you do drugs that's why you shouldn't do drugs like my friend who said he is gonna be a hobo when he grows up

It would be extremely ill advised. If you have hep C and your blood or other bodily fluids or your tissue contaminates the artist they retain the right to sue you. If you can find an artist that will accept the risks then by all means go for it, but you must be open with your artist because if you aren't then you can be sued for negligence or even attempted murder depending on the court.

Yes, it is possible for your body to fight Hepatitis C(HCV), but the it remains in the body forever meaning that it could come back. When the body fights HCV it can lower the levels in your blood to almost undetectable. Though as I stated it is possible that at any time the levels could again increase. If your body fights it then you do not have chronic HCV, if the levels are high and do damage to the liver then they will tell you that you have chronic HCV. 30% of people with HCV are able to fight it off. REMEMBER THOUGH YOU MAY FIGHT IT AND YOUR LEVELS LOWER THAT DOES NOT MEAN YOU ARE CURED.

There are two forms of hepatitis B: Acute (self-clearing) or chronic. According to Wikipedia, "Acute hepatitis B infection does not usually require treatment because most adults clear the infection spontaneously."

1% of acute cases may require early antiviral treatment, for example if there disease is particularly aggressive, or if the patient is immunocompromised.

There are currently no drugs which will clear a chronic hepatitis b infection, however drugs are available which slow the replication of the virus, hence reducing liver damage and improving quality of life. These are all "antiviral" drugs. These are frequently used in those with chronic hepatitis B.

Another issue is that, even when a person appears to be "cured" of hepatitis B, the disease can be "reactivated" and occur again in the same person. However this is mainly an issue for immunocompromised patients.

Hepatitis B is preventable by vaccination (usually a course of three injections, given over a year, but course length and timing of each dose is individualised according to the patients requirements).

As a general answer to your question, no, there is no "cure" for hepatitis B, however it is "treatable".

Please see related link for more in-depth information.

It is unlikely. Hepatitis A vaccine is a two-dose series.

between the left gastric and lienal The portal vein(vena portæ) is about 8 cm. in length, and is formed at the level of the second lumbar vertebra by the junction of the superior mesenteric and lienal veins, the union of these veins taking place in front of the inferior vena cava and behind the neck of the pancreas. It passes upward behind the superior part of the duodenum and then ascends in the right border of the lesser omentum to the right extremity of the porta hepatis, where it divides into a right and a left branch, which accompany the corresponding branches of the hepatic artery into the substance of the liver. In the lesser omentum it is placed behind and between the common bile duct and the hepatic artery, the former lying to the right of the latter. It is surrounded by the hepatic plexus of nerves, and is accompanied by numerous lymphatic vessels and some lymph glands.

Not even bleach will kill the Hep C virus most of the time. Hepatitis C can live at least 3 days outside the body (up to a week in some cases) - heat inactivation (autoclave) will kill the virus.

You are much better off washing your hands with soap and water.

HBsAg non-reactive does NOT mean immune to hepatitis B. To understand this we have to discuss what exactly HBsAg is.

The hepatitis B virus has several components. It is an encapsulated virus, meaning that its central DNA core is protected by an outer shell. This shell is sometimes called the "surface". On this surface are some antigens, which are simply proteins that induce an immune response in the body. We abbreviate these antigens as HBsAg, which is shorthand for "hepatitis B surface antigen". If a blood test reveals that there are no detectable hepatitis B surface antigens, this simply means that the individual has no evidence of being currently infected with hepatitis B. Otherwise, there would be some hepatitis B surface antigens (with hepatitis B DNA inside them) floating around in the bloodstream.

To determine if a person is immune to hepatitis B, we must draw a different test. This test checks for the presence of antibodies to the hepatitis B surface antigens. Sometimes this is abbreviated as HBAb, or as Hepatitis B IgG. If the patient has antibodies to Hepatitis B surface antigens, and has no detectable HBsAg in their bloodstream, then it is likely that they are immune. But be careful! Simply having Hepatitis B surface antibodies does not indicate immunity! It may mean that the person is actually infected with Hep B. This is why both tests are necessary to document immunity.

"Borderline" means 2.76, if you have less then 2.76 it means its negative and if you have more then 2.76 then its positive but 2.76 is considered as "Borderline".

If you have it, it can be knocked back or into so called remission with powerful drug therapy. that is when they can no longer detect it in your blood. there is no cure though, you will have it for life.

Could we get a little more clarification about what you want to know here? Do you mean how does one contract hepatitis? Or do you want to know how it began years ago? Also, are you wanting information on all of the Hepatitis viruses or just one in particular (such as hep A, B, C, etc.)? How did it began years ago

Hepatitis B can be transmitted sexually or through blood. Therefore, safe sexual practices (latex condoms) and avoiding contact with blood (needle sharing) are important precautions.

Note: donated blood is routinely screened for HepB but there is still a small risk of infection through blood transfusions.

Mothers can also transmit Hep B to her baby during birth (this is called vertical transmission). To decrease the likelihood of vertical transmission, the newborn should be given Hep B immunoglobulin (HBIG) and the Hep B vaccine within 24 hours of birth.

Since one of the routes of transmission of Hepatitis C is through blood transfusions, this suggests there may not be ample screening of the blood supply for this organism especially in emergency blood drives. If you know for certain that you have Hepatitis C, you should not donate blood. If you are not certain, you should see a doctor. A major risk factor is shooting street drugs with shared needles.

== == No one can answer this one and not even the doctors. Some patients have a lust for life and "mind over matter" is so true. The human body is certainly an amazing structure and one we often take lightly. I have not trying to be flippant here at all, but in ways being on heroin can help this person get through the nasty effects from cirrhosis and Hepatitis C. I think you know already that the life expectancy is on the low side as far as cirrhosis, but many people can live fairly long lives with Hepatitis C. With the heroin at least this person will not have to endure some of the painful side effects either of these diseases can create. It is so difficult to get off heroin so this person will not likely make any changes in this department at this point in time. I have been through many long years with three friends of mine with AIDS and each one is different. One had given up completely and hunkered into their home (until it was necessary to be hospitalized) before passing on. The 2nd friend worked between conventional medicine and Homeopathy medicine and although there is no known cure for AIDS it has lengthened this person's life. My 3rd friend has been taking a few medications here and there, but forces themselves to become active and (not in denial) tries to forget they have AIDS and still works and is productive. This person is still living to this day. I believe the mind is a beautiful thing and highly underestimated and if one puts their mind on a survival mode they will surely make it to a longer life than expected by any doctors or the medical profession as a whole. Good luck God Bless Marcy
