A member asked:

Chronic hepatitis b ... i did interferon therapy for one year and then 1 year break and now i have viral loud 38074609 copies / ml.what i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Go back to doctor: See a hepatologist. There is new therapy available with which to treat this disease. Because the alternative is ultimately cirrhosis and possibly hepatocellular carcinoma and death it is certainly worthwhile looking into. Best wishes.
