Question 1

can hepatitis b cause ibs?

Accepted Answer

No: Hepatitis b does not cause irritable bowel syndrome.

Question 2

ruq pain, history open chole 2012, gerd, ibs, hbv, htn, protonix (pantoprazole) 40 mg bid, hyperlipidemia, sob.

Accepted Answer

Pain: Pain, on the internet, is often not helped much. Since you no longer have your gallbladder that leaves your liver and colon as possible culprits. I would advise a visit to your family doctor today to figure this out and to see if this could represent something serious.

Question 3

can everyone born in the 60's get hepatitis b vaccines?

Accepted Answer

No reason not to: The present form of the vaccine was not available to infants born in the 60's, but i see no reason for them not to get it. In fact, i believe  it is required for most health care systems to offer it to any personnel that have patient contact whatever their age.

Question 4

can hepatitis b be passed from father to child in the u.s.?

Accepted Answer

Depends: If the father passes it to mom, before or during pregnancy, baby can be exposed & get it. If mom is known to have it, there are things the dr can do to try to stop it from passing to baby. After birth, it is unlikely dad would pass it to baby. It is a blood born agent & i don't see what likely blood contact baby will have with dad. Baby should also get the vaccine at birth.
