I have liver disease and went to UNC here in NC and the lab work there says Wilsons due to copper in my blood work. Was sent for an MRI and it says possible MS...my main symptom is I can hardly walk, the pain in my legs from my hips to ankle is awful. My lumbar x-rays..well forget it every vertabre has something wrong but my back doesn't hurt..it does spasam in the L4 & L5 but thats it.
I was wondering while I am waiting for the final diagnoses if any of you have this pain in the legs. I have to walk with a cane and this just came on in September and seems to be moving very fast.
I am 54..also have Lymes, Fibromyalgia and stage 3 NASH-Liver cirosis.

Hi my name is Denise. I to have Fibromyalgia. I was diagnosed with WD when i was 8 yrs old. I don't have problems with my legs however i get the neurological symptoms from WD. The best thing for you to do for your fibromyalgia is sleep under an electric blanket. Warm is good, it keeps your blood flowing, and you don't wake up stiff. Have you ever tried low impact pilates. or yoga? i also go to massage therapy and get reiki healings. Its very good for your soul. Hope you get well and feel better. God bless you.
