This is the first time I have put a thread on the site. I have read a lot of what people are going through with WG and my heart go's out to you. I feel lucky that I have some
GREAT dr's.(5). In fact my general practional said that my kidney dr. saved my life when he put me in the hospital. I truly believe they have a handle on the WG. Since I was diagnosed in Aug of 2013 after having a kidney and lung bio.
I now have found out that I have factor 5 leaden and the gout. I would recomend everyone to have a blood test for the factor 5 blood disorder as it can be a killer with or without WG.
The question I have for you all, does WG effect your legs and strength. I was proud of my power in my legs when I played football but now when I use my legs they are so weak that I can hardly get up. I am going to talk to my rumatoligist to see what she thinks but I would like some input from you all.
