My father aged 55 years, recently had loose motion. The doctor prescribed few blood tests and HbsAg reactive has been found in the report. He doesn't have any symptoms for that. Also, his LFT tests are normal. Now i am planning to get the further tests to check if its chronic or acute in Bangalore.
