Is it possible that lbm is triggered by hepatitis b?
Patient: I was diagnosed with hep b 3 years ago.  With the medicine  ( baraclude ) that my doctor prescribed my liver tests became normal . Last night I started to have lbm and I can't think of anything that I ate that would cause the lbm. Is it possible that the lbm is triggered by my hep b? Doctor: Hi thanks for contacting HCM....You have now normal liver function after diagnosed with hepatitis b infection 3 year ago ...But you can be carrier ...So confirm your negative infection by viral marker study by ELISA.Anyway here your irregular bowel movement could be by eating outside food or excess fatty meal or excess spicy food.It could be from gastroenteritis like  infection also by virus or bacteria.If diarrhea with mucus or blood present or fever start antibiotic....If muscular spasm more dicyclomine can taken.Small meal with frequent interval taken.Avoid alcohol , smoking etc.If problem more USG done .Take care.Consult gastroentetologist if not improving.Dr.Parth
