• I am concerned about my liver. Should I take a test for hepatitis A and B?

Lately I've noticed my appetite decreasing and I am also having digestive issues off and on. I have a feeling that my liver function may be affected. Liver issues run in my family which also makes me nervous. Should I take a test for hepatitis A and B?

You should check with primary care about your symptoms. They will get a thorough history and do a physical exam to know what tests you might need.

I advise you to see your Personal Physician. He can order liver function tests and do a full history and physical examination. That way he can determine if your liver is the cause.
