Honey,

Go home and take care of yourself. Hepa B is not a very serious case which is cured with lots of amino acids, rest, good diet and a loving family.

Go back home, get well then come back (or not).

Girl_ Glen please give sound advise if you post on such serious issues . Hep B is present in the liver yes, but you failed to mention that it is also present in the blood.

Hep B can be transferred via blood/saliva contact and/or s.e.x.ual intercourse.

If you have Hep B it will show on the blood sample test carried out for the residence visa.

Arniegang, my advise is sound and is serious since it came from personal experience. Had Hep B 10 years ago and there's no recurrence.

Your advise is sound from where???

below are links from York Medical Uni in the UK and the UK's National Health Service, both confirm that although you may be in remission, you are still a carrier and Hep B is detectable.
I quote:

Anyone found to be Hepatitis B Surface Antigen positive will be recalled to the occupational health unit for advice and further testing. A positive test would indicate a history of Hepatitis B infection and would therefore prevent commencement of areas of training involving exposure prone procedures. Refusal to undergo testing would be treated as a positive result.

Having searched around for some more info, I correct my previous info, you can work in certain sectors with Hep A. But definately not if you are positive for Hep B or C.
