Your viral load is high .. please do Hbeag test, and consult a medical gastroenterologist so that he can start you on anti viral therapy . You'll also need liver protective medicines to prevent further fibrosis and cirrohis. Make sure your close relativrs are also tested for hep B and if negative, should be vaccinated immediately.
