> I underwent a number of blood tests to determine possible causes for my weight gain last year. My doctor said I had a strain of hepatitis B. Now my understanding is that this is sexually transmitted. I have been with my husband for 4 years so this alarmed us both. However, a small bit of research shows that AD's and mood stabilizers alter or elevate liver enzymes. Can this ultimately lead to hepatitis B?

I do not think so. Hepatitis B is a virus that has nothing to do with antidepressants. I'm not an expert on the various hepatitis strains, but it would seem that you were exposed to the virus at some point in the past and just did not happen to develop any symptoms.
