Hi,

Your question is a bit confusing. Have you seen a physician?

in reply to SaltyFlorist

Not specifically for this but I have been diagnosed separately with most of the conditions, plus more, of the symptoms. But no one has mentioned MSA to me.

Not surprising. I believe MSA is only confirmed post mortem.

A neurologist may help if you’re looking to confirm a diagnosis.

If you’re looking for help with symptoms MSA Trust and people on this site are very beneficial.

I should note the most important thing is that you trust your physician and are being treated and medicated properly.

I would recommend pushing for brain scans if you can. My mum was only diagnosed through the change in the brain scans. Nurses and doctors were adamant she had parkinsons but the symptoms were way more severe. Still the only way they could tell was through the change in brain scans. Hope this helps x
