Warning Signs Of Wilson's Disease To Watch For

Fatigue and Weakness

Fatigue and weakness are both common in patients with Wilson's disease, and they occur mainly because of liver involvement. Patients may feel so tired that they are unable to participate fully in work or school, and they may sometimes need to take days off from these. Along with fatigue and weakness, patients may notice they have less of an appetite than normal, and they may also experience abdominal pain. Patients with these symptoms may need help with daily tasks, and a doctor should be notified if fatigue worsens. Doctors can assess the severity of a patient's fatigue by taking a health history, and medications or lifestyle changes may be beneficial in reducing the symptoms for some patients.
