i got my blood test results today and all of the indicators suggest i'm in pristine health, except for one thing: the presence of hep b antibodies.

i'm not surprised that all of the other indicators are as excellent as they are. i take good care of myself. but, hep b? what?

well, the presence of antibodies does not necessarily mean i have hep b. rather, there's three possibilities here:

1) i got vaccinated for it at some point. and, i think that's probably the right answer, although it's been a long time.
2) i came into contact with it at some point and, because my immune system is so strong, i beat it.
3) or i've got an infection and i'm fighting it.

i've never injected anything. ever. or at least i don't remember it. and, i don't blackout very often. but, did i catch hep b in september on the blackout night? i have absolutely no memory.

but, there is another, obscure possibility. and i need to call my mom for it.

they want another blood test for surface antibodies. i don't know why. they should have been able to test for that. is it just about billing me a second time? fuck, man, my arm only has so much blood in it...

....but, i'll take it at the beginning of january....once i've done a little research.....


"hold still.

one. ahahaha.
