I've had my tests back and the result (among lots of things) was:

Gamma GT 12 (normal range 15-73)
TGP 83 (normal 21-72)

Hepatitis B Anti HBS: REACTIVE - 65 (not reactive <8, inconclusive 8-12, reactive >12)

Hebatitis A Anti HAV Total: REACTIVE - 0,12 (reactive <0,80; Inconclusive between 0,80 and 0,99; not reactive >0,99)

I have been vaccinated 10 years ago... Is that just the vaccine or it might be something?

You need viral titres to tell the difference between antibody response to virus versus vaccine. However its unusual to have such a strong response after ten years, so a suspicion of infection is not unwarranted. Your medical practitioner should be able to advise you.

Yes thanks Alex
I will scheduele a appointment but in this time of year it'll take forever, so I asked here to see if anyone knew.


I had the same thought on the strong response....

Plus they say the Vaccine are supposed to last 5 to 10 years... (even though it can last up to 20)
