Hepatitis B heeeeellllllppp?


my boyfirend was born in romania and adopted from there. he just recently found out he has hepatitis b. is it possibl to get hepatitis from getting the shot if you had weak blood

Weak blood? I know it is possible to get Hep B from sharing needles. Is that what you mean?

weak blood...I would say there is no such thing as weak blood...
what shot do you mean...I am going to assume that you mean hepatitis B vaccination....no you cannot get hepatitus B from shot.

from what i know...vaccination is basically the virus itself prettymuch dead...when it's thrown in your blood stream..your immune system reacts and builds defense...since the virus is dead already...that defense then just stays in blood stream and when real virus attacks...your immune systems attacks again with defense...so you're attacking with double the defense .

Hepatitis B is a sexually transmitted disease that is transmitted via bodily fluids such as semen, vaginal fluid and blood. However, you can receive the hepatitis-B vaccine that is administered over a period of three-six months through three injections. As for "weak blood", unless your boyfriend had other medical conditions (such as HIV/AIDS) or other medical conditions would his immune system be "weak" to combat the disease without the assistance of drugs. I would recommend your reading WWW.MAYOCLINIC.COM for additional information.

Whatever the cause or wherever he got the Hepa B does't matter anymore. What's important is he should be treated, so, you need a doctor. There might be some doctors who could read your question, but they can't examine your bf, hence, they can't prescribe particular medicine for your bf because there are factors to consider before prescription. They can only give you some advise on what to do.

So, you'd better accompany your bf to the doctor for a check up. Hurry up!

Did you mean hepatitis B vaccine? Hepatitis B is transmitted via blood - transfusion, infected needle, during delivery and via body fluid. What he will get from the hepatitis B shots is an immunity, antibodies against hepatitis B. Your boyfriend should find out what classification his hepatitis B is. If he has an active infection or if he is a carrier of hepatitis virus, in which case you should protect yourself by getting hepatitis B shots.

Hepatitis B is present in all body fluids. If I were you I would have a blood test done to Check your hep status as you may have been exposed to the virus. I have never herd of anyone contracting the virus from the vaccination. Some people however don't dove lop sufficient resistance to the virus after the 3 shots. This is why it is recommended that you have a follow up blood test to check your antibody levels.

I work with people who have hep B have been vaccinated and had no problems whatsoever with the vaccination
