I'm feeling really worried because I got really dizzy and then started having Hematemesis. When I went to the hospital, they told me that my diastolic pressure is at 115. Also, I've noticed that my left rib cage is bulging more compared to the right side. Could you help me understand what might be going on?

View allI found out I had Hepa B a couple of years back after an hbsag screening, and I was told it might go away by itself. So recently, I got my blood screened again, and the result came back as nonreactive. Could this mean the virus has cleared up on its own? I'm a bit confused and would appreciate some insight.
I'm happy to help clarify this for you. *Understanding Your Hepatitis B Test Results* *Initial Diagnosis (2 years ago)* - You tested positive for Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), indicating an active Hepatitis B infection. *Recent Test Results* - Your recent HBsAg test result is "non-reactive," which means the virus is no longer detectable in your blood. *What Does This Mean?* A non-reactive HBsAg result suggests that: 1. *Viral clearance*: Your body may have cleared the Hepatitis B virus on its own, which is possible in some cases. 2. *Viral suppression*: Alternatively, the virus might still be present but at undetectable levels, possibly due to your immune system's response. However, to confirm whether you've truly cleared the virus, you should undergo further testing, such as: 1. *HBsAb (Hepatitis B surface antibody) test*: This checks for antibodies against the Hepatitis B virus, indicating immunity. 2. *HBV DNA (Hepatitis B virus DNA) test*: This measures the viral load in your blood.

I've been dealing with Crohn's for 2 years and my recent MRI enterography showed terminal ileum wall thickening of 20mm and proximal ileum dilated to 4.3cm. My doctor is recommending surgery but I'm wondering if medication could still help instead of going straight to surgery
