Disappearance of HBV DNA is an expected outcome after starting antivirals. Normally treatment is initiated if DNA load is more than 2000 taking into other considerations as well. If all parameters are under control the chance of liver damage is minimal. It depends on regular follow up

Consult a Hepatologist in person for better understanding of the condition
