Default I'm doing fine

I am doing some more research on my own with past lab work and other tests. I will ask the doctors to do more once I see if they haven't already run the neccesary tests.

Wilson's Disease is when the body doesn't process copper properly and it build up in certain body tissues.

They typically treat it with medication and diet. I'm doing just fine and starting to burry myself in the research any chance I get. My specialists are all taking a wait and see aproach and I will be researching during that time. I have so many tests to go from if I just find some things that could fit I will ask the doctors about them.

I'm keeping a symptom journal and trying my best not to over do it. Thank you all for your support, I was just upset at the thought of not being able to have chocolate anymore. Now it's starting to make more sense and I'm off to do more research.

I know this may sound silly, but what is Wilson's disease?

How are you handling this? Are you OK?

I am sending big hugs and prayers your way!
