HBVsAg positive: Did you get tested for hbsab, hbeab and viral load ? Can you post them if you have them ? Also your ast/alt (though you mentioned your liver is normal). Hbeag -ve usually means there is little active replication (assuming you do not have mutated virus which manages not to produce e-antigen. This is why having hbeab test would help). - treatment depends on your viral load. - hbsag eliminatio.
