hi, my advice is that, if u want to screen for Hep B, C, HIV, or any blood transmitted disease, just go ahead for a blood donation. if you're clean, and you wont be notified. save your money.
and if you're going to do a liver function test, renal function test or full blood count...unless you really at risk of having such disease, there's really no point of doing it because the markers often shows normal values. and even if there's abnormal value, you'll still need a doctor to interpret the result for you so you wont misinterpret it yourself.

many people was like "wow" when they see their own reports, fascinated by the values and tests done on their blood. but the facts is that these test are only required to investigate a patient with some signs and symptoms of certain disease just to confirm a diagnosis instead of using these blood tests as a screening tools to screen for disease.

lipid profile is suggested for those high risk person( hypertension, obesity, strong family history of stroke and dyslipidaemia, diabetes melitus)
however, liver function test is harder to define...the rise of one value sometimes doesn't implicate anything...only when the whole readings is significant rise, then you can suspect something wrong with your liver...

there's a few case where some people see abnormal values in their test, thus rushing to clinic for help...and ended up going through more complex diagnostic test which requires a lot of expenses...
and the final diagnosis is normal...

that's one of the strategy how our private laboratories earns consumers' money...by giving them packages of blood test without telling them the cause of the abnormalities, and also the solution to the problems...

note: don't ever waste your money on cancer screening because it's not diagnostic and specific for normal human body.
Tumour marker is most useful in monitoring treatment effectiveness and also use to screen for relapse for post operative and chemo patients.

, any abnormal value, u can consult me also ...hhahaha....

Immunization for Hep B is quite a simple procedure, of course after 3 course of injection you'll have to run a blood test to see if you're immune. which are usually a few weeks after the immunization.

However, for those who borned in recent years, Hepatitis B immunization are immediately give after birth and subsequent follow by booster at age 2,3,5 months.

Hepatitis A infection are often self-limiting...means if your body are immunocompetent, it'll recover by time. And you may/may not develop immunity afterwards. Hep A immunization are recommended for travellers.
