Avatar m tn In general creatine is excreted in your urine. You can drink more water and it will help. That's what most doctors recommend. Take vitamin D 2000 IU every day and it will help HBEAG to get negative.
Avatar f tn I would advise you to do a vitamin D test. I would not be surprised if your vitamin D levels are low. If your vitamin D levels are a little low, I would recommend taking a vitamin D supplement. It will help your ALT levels to normalize. Try to get your Vitamin D level over 30.
Avatar n tn On and off Vitamin D 5000 IU + Vitamin K2 (MK7) 45mcg + Tea spoon of Fish oil + milk thistle . For breakfast - Gluten free, vegan Steel cut oatmeal with strawberry, blueberry, raspberry and nuts. Sometime egg and gluten free taco or flat bread. Occasional red meat (once every 2 weeks) but mostly leafy vegetable and seafood (shrimp, Salmon, Bronzini, etc..) and sometime chicken.
Avatar f tn HbeAg turning negative is generally a good sign, however important indications of response are diminishing hbvdna and normalization of his ALT. Your assay of HBsAg is semi-quantitative, best to have a true quantitative assay that reports in iu/ml. Your father may like to have a Vitamin D tested and take Vitamin D supplement is his level is low.
Avatar m tn Is it advisable that I start taking supplements like calcium and vitamin D along with my therapy to prevent bone loss? Thank you.
Avatar n tn check also vitamin d level, i also used to take a lot of paracetamol for bone pains but since i started vitamin d supplement because i was severely deficent (new normal values 30-100ng/ml optimal 50-60ng/ml) all pains are gone we might also suppose that hbvdna very low or und is the reason but i do think bone pains are related to vitamin d deficency which is made by cronic viral infections, on hbv more than 95% are deficent
Avatar m tn she is the perfect candidate to let us understand if vitamin D has any effect on immune system and she will start vitamin D tomorrrow.if vitamin D works like on hcv trial we should see little help with the immune system and maybe little lower hbvdna/hbsag/alt.
Avatar n tn are you on vitamin d supplements?vitamin d3 supplements are necessry to avoid bone and fat problems while on tdf, also diet is very important i also noticed little fat gain when tdf was added to etv but since i reached bmi 21 with no fat at all it is easier to control it by vit d and diet.
Avatar m tn if you want to learn more browse older post about the studies of vitamin d level and hbsag/hbvdna clearance, balance of vitamin d with vitamin k2 (vitamin d absorbs more calcium and k2 takes it out of blood to fix in bones and cells, d3 without k2 is not healthy and calcium is useless if on this balance)
Avatar m tn but before starting tenofovir you can try daily 10000(ten thousand) iu dose of vit d and check its value bi-weekly, and check your other parameters dna and hbsag monthly. you can do this for 2-3 month and check the progress , you may get good results with vit d only and in future dont need to start tenofovir. even if you get partial response from vit d, u will be clear that vit d is helpfull for you, then after 2-3 months u can start tenofovir with vit d.
Avatar f tn you need to increase vitamin d dose, having a high pth while also having high/normal vitamin d means vitamin d receptors are blocked. this happens for almost all chronic diseases especially hbv carriers but can be also due to the vitamin d receptor genotype, weaker vit d receptor genotypes are linked to weaker immune system and various diseases and hbv chronicity as well.
Avatar m tn http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/current-vitamin-d-guidelines-pose-serious-public-health-issue-with-significant-cost-and-health-impacts-284078211.html Increasing vitamin D intake could prevent 37,000 deaths annually and help taxpayers save billions CALGARY, Nov. 27, 2014 /CNW Telbec/ - New research finds that current national vitamin D intake recommendations are too low and that body weight must be taken into account to determine the appropriate vitamin D dose in any given individual.
Avatar m tn I've had all of these symptoms with both entecavir and tenofovir. It isn't your vitamin d levels, it is the nucs! I say it is a combination of hbv and entecavir. It ***** but you've got to get used to it.
Avatar f tn vitamins are useless if she had a good diet, only vitamin e 300/400iu and vitamin d have had results increasing immune response to hbv.
Avatar m tn Bitetto and co-workers’ HCV patients were immunocompromised, and they were supplemented with low-dose vitamin D (800 IU/d) after liver transplantation. In addition, most of their HCV patients (75%) had low vitamin D levels despite treatment. Finally, that study was retrospective and focused on the prevention of osteoporosis, not on the treatment of hepatitis C. The exact mechanism of action leading to improved RVR, EVR, and SVR in patients receiving vitamin D is unknown.
Avatar m tn about 25% hbsag svr at 1 year with interferon 24 weeks and then tenofovir....if you consider we add alinia, vit d and low chol hbv is having the maximum trouble to win.
Avatar m tn Thoughts? My thought it that will this drug is good, they need to speed up the cure instead of focusing on trying to "pimp" this drug. http://www.hivandhepatitis.
