Did you try the suggestion about trying to propagate it? If that didn't work (and you haven't really given it enough time) you could try cutting off the whole of the leafless stem and hoping it will grow up again from the part that still looks healthy.
What conditions are you growing it in, ie position, temperature, moisture.

I have now got in a fairly dark spot doesn't get no sunshine its an alcove under my stairs the temperature is OK not cold if now got gas central heating which I don't use at no cos itvwarm I don't hardly water now ...I have tried it in a few different spots it was in some sun and used to water it more than I do now but to no avail so I don't no what to do now when I had it it was brimming with leaves and it came from a flat with only coal fire it was happy there ...

The branches on it are very long and and no leaves but towards bottom there is more leaves not as many as there were though

They don't like being moved and they need lots of light, best in an east or west facing window at this time of year (morning or evening sun) and they need a minimum of 55 deg. F. (13 deg C). Water with room temperature water when the top of the compost feels dry.
As it's an old plant it might also benefit from repotting in fresh compost if you haven't already done so - but it won't recover overnight.

Thank you yes I think it did not like the move I will see if I've got smwhere by window but I don't think if got the room to put I will repot because I haven't done that see what happens then I hope it will survive ...thank you for help ...fingers crossed ...

It is a very big plant
