Whereas hepatitis b there is no clear cut treatment po. There is a immunoglobulin treatment offered but its very expensive and complete treatment is not asssured hence most doctors specially in poor countries like pinas does not offer it kasi d nman siguradong mag work.. Almost 20 thou pesos per treatment ata yun and you require a couple of treatment without the asssurance you will be hep b free.
Difference between tb carrier and hep b carrier... Tb carrier like most filipino, we will test positive for the mantoux test but it does NOT mean we are infectious to other people so even if we are in the same room with a tb carrier no one gets tb. Tb carriers if they get cancer or chemo, it means they can develop an active tb but if they are healthy no one .. Not even the tb carrier will get sick.
Hepa b carrier... If you have sex with a co- worker, they can pass hepa b. if they get finger pricked at work and that needle is used on somebody, they can pass the hepa b.
So mas ok pa may tb kaysa may hepa.

The immunoglobulin talaga ay hindi treatment. Given lang to "boost" your immune system. Particularly helpful kung Hepatitis C. But the world has yet to find a cure for ANY virus. Even the common cold has no cure. Once you have hepa, you have hepa forever.
While TB (not a virus) is curable.

I also have Hep B inactive state with fatty Liver pero was able to pass the medical test naman. Ang principal applicant is my husband and dependent Ako. I personally declared it para Lang Walang maging problem. Before the medical nagpa lab test Ako and nagpaultrasound ng liver and kidney, liver function test and Hepatitis DNA test.
During my medical mataas ang ALT ko sa liver function test Ko kaya I was asked to have another test after 3 months which was advised by BUPA.
No worries, you will definitely pass sa medical. Marami akong na encounter with my same case na nasa Australia na rin like me. Hope this help. God bless.
