Hi all, I was diagnosed last Nov. over the past few months I have joint and muscle pain at different times. Some days are ok. My knees, thighs sometimes shins and shoulders. Taking urso. Has anyone else experienced this? If so how do you handle. Thanks.

had the same. I think they are finding overlap with fibromyalgia. Though not with chronic fatigue because by its nature PBC creates fatigue. Worth getting tested for rheumatoid arthritis or other issues just to make sure. But I have the same. Keep us posted on anything you find out.
