Hi there, I’m just after a bit of advice really.
> I while back i had a blood test at a local GU clinic. I was told in my results that my body had come into contact with the Hep b infection but had fought it off and that I now have natural immunity. During this time I was receiving hep b inoculations for a trip to south africa. I explained this but the doctor was still insistent that i had come into contact with the virus at some point.
> I am just wondering what this means for me, i understand that the infection has gone and im not contagious. but do i need to inform my gp of this? and do i need to declare it on job applications if asked have i been infected with blood borne viruses? > Thanks very much
