Hi,

Thanks for writing to health care magic.
I can understand your concern.

You should consult a gastroenterologist. Wilsons disease requires proper physical examination, investigations and proper management depending on the investigation reports.

Continue to ask further queries as required.
Hope this helps.
Take care.
