Explain The Results Of Anti Hbs And Anti Hcv

Hello! I am 23 years old and I just got my Anti HBs and Anti HCV test done. My Anti HBs (CMIA) result is 1.72 nonreactive and my Anti HCV (ECLIA) result is 1.97 grayzone. Can you pls interpret these results for me? I'm really really worried. Thank you.

your result of AntiHBS is negative here. but anti HCV is grayzone means its borderline between positive and negative. gray zone value means value just above the cut off point for negative. so we can not consider as negative. you may have it. just repeat it or go for another test for hcv.
