Hi Anji P

This is the place for MSA - multiple system Atrophy. It is a different disease from Motor Neurone and most of what you will read on here will not be helpful

Sorry to hear about the diagnosois and good luck with finding the support you need

Hello Anji. I've had a quick look at the list of conditions on HealthUnlocked and there doesn't appear to be one for MND. I would suggest you contact the MND Association - mndassociation.org - there is a lot of information on their web site and I am sure they will point you in the right direction. Good luck, Ian
