A member asked:

Can wilson's disease cause low t3, (liothyronine) hypoglycemia & occasional hypokalemia?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Why do you ask?: Wilson's disease is a deadly genetic disease involving the liver and brain; you either have it or you don't, and any practicing physician can make the call. This isn't how it presents but if you're concerned, ask. "Wilson's syndrome" is a fad diagnosis involving thyroid, promoted by an individual without credentials, and anyone who reads the symptom list will usually think they have it.
