Wilson Disease | Clinical Presentation

What is Wilson disease? Individuals typically take in more copper than the body needs every day, and any excess is excreted. In patients with Wilson disease, a genetic defect affecting the ATP7B transport protein causes copper to accumulate in the body and damage various tissues and organs. This video covers the pathophysiology of Wilson disease, as well as common signs and symptoms, complications, and treatments.

Hello,
Doctor. I have Wilson's disease and my joint condition is blurred vision.
I live in Thailand. . would like to discuss treatment
I have been taking d penciliamine 1 capsule before breakfast and 1 capsule before dinner for 10 years..
How do we know that the amount of copper accumulated in the body is depleted? Or has it reduced to satisfactory?
The doctor I'm treating doesn't give an answer, so how do we know if we should reduce the amount of d penciliamine?
Because now the symptoms are starting to have cirrhosis because of taking a lot of drugs. I have medication to treat acid reflux, but now I have stopped taking it. and flu symptoms, take medicine often..
Please help. Treatment advice.
thank you very much
