What is Motor Neurone Disease?

Motor Neurone Disease is a rare condition that affects motor neurons, the nerves responsible for transmitting messages from the brain and spinal cord to the muscles. Damage to these cells leads to the gradual loss of motor skills, weakness, and muscle wasting.

While Motor Neurone Disease is uncommon, it can affect adults of any age, with a higher likelihood of occurrence in people over 50.

Symptoms of Motor Neurone Disease

Symptoms of Motor Neurone Disease vary from person to person and can include stiff joints, muscle cramps and weakness in arms and legs, slurred speech, weight loss, swallowing and breathing difficulties, and emotional changes.

Treatment of Motor Neurone Disease

Unfortunately, there is no known cure for MND, but with the right treatment and support, symptoms can be managed to keep individuals comfortable and improve their quality of life.

At London Imperial Care, our high-quality home care services aim to provide the best care and support, allowing individuals with MND to enjoy their lives to the fullest without the added stress and expense of moving into a care home.
