Extractions: Disease Injury Nutrition Poison ... Prevention Definition: A degenerative disorder characterized by progressive damage to the autonomic nervous system (the portion of the nervous system that controls involuntary functions such as blood pressure, heart rate, digestion and sexual function), muscle tremor and rigidity, slow movement, and other widespread neurologic losses. Causes, incidence, and risk factors: Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a rare degenerative condition. It is a condition that appears similar to Parkinson's disease in that patients may be slow moving, tremulous and have a shuffling gait but with more widespread neurologic damage and damage to the autonomic nervous system (the portion of the nervous system that controls involuntary functions).

My mother was diagnosed with MSA about 2 months ago and I have been studying everything I can find on the internet about MSA. I would love to find somewhere in Canada that would have a Patient Conference or Support Groups of some kind.I Thank-You for any information you can give me.

http://www.cmdg.org/Movement_/Parkinsons_Plus/MSA/msa.htm

Extractions: Multiple System Atrophy This term abbreviated MSA defines a specific syndrome within the larger less well defined category of multiple system degenerations. The features of the MSA include: parkinsonism, cerebellar or corticospinal signs, orthostatic hypotension, impotence, and urinary incontinence or retention, usually preceding or within two years after the onset of the motor symptoms. The previous division into Shy Drager Syndrome (SDS), Striato Nigral Degeneration (SND), and Olivopontocerebellar Atrophy (OPCA) has been dropped. Immunohistochemistry demonstrates that these three disorders share a common pathology. The latest diagnostic criteria are shown in the table below. Wenning et. al. determined that the combination of autonomic insufficiency, speech or bulbar dysfunction, absence of dementia, postural instability with falls, poor response to levodopa, and absence of levodopa-induced confusion gave a diagnostic sensitivity and specificity greater than 90%. Median age of onset of MSA is about age 55 years (range of 33 to 76). It affects men slightly more than women. Nearly half of patients are disabled or wheelchair bound within 5 years of the onset of motor symptoms. Mean survival is 6 to 7 years. 80% of MSA patients develop predominant parkinsonism (MSA-P) and 20% develop predominant cerebellar signs (MSA-C). The latter statistics are likely skewed by referral patterns to movement disorder centers. There is considerable overlap. Cerebellar features are present in over 40% of patients with SND type, and parkinsonism is detectable in 50% of OPCA type patients.
