Could The Liver Disease Cause Muscle Pain?

In 2005 I had a liver biopsy, which showed stage 1 liver disease (Hep C), in March 2013 I had another liver biopsy, which showed I was at stage 2. Last Sunday, out of the blue, my thigh muscles both ached. A couple hrs later my hip joints ached, as well. The next a.m. my right leg & hip were fine, but it felt (and still does) like my left groin muscle was pulled! I can barely walk, and getting my left sock on in the a.m. is impossible, due to the pain. I live a rather sedentary lifestyle, so I know I didn t stretch & tear my groin, but am wondering if my liver disease could be causing this problem? It s been 5 days now & it s killing me! On Tuesday, I thought it was getting better, but when I awoke on Wednesday a.m. it was worse & still is. Any thoughts or ideas? Thank you!

hepatitis c have nothing to do with your thigh pain
yet there are 2 posdibilitys
no 1 is dysfunction in your L1/2 vertebrae caused by spondylosis or disc or even simple cold
no2 is that you are developing hip osteoarthritis
try simple sustained strech to your hip flexirs for 1 min
if pain improves it is a hip condition
also try walking for 5 min while leaning forwards if pain improves then it is a hip condition but if worsened then it is a lumber problem
do A simple X ray to confirm
Good Luck
