    In neuronal disease, the survival time can be as short as a few months, and as long as 10 years in the elderly. The exact condition of the disease is unknown, and lesions can selectively invade anterior horn cells of the spinal cord, motor neurons in the posterior brainstem, cortical pyramidal cells, and pyramidal tracts. It is a chronic, progressive neurodegenerative disease.

    Patients present primarily with muscle weakness, muscle atrophy, and pyramidal tract signs, and generally do not present with sensory deficits or urinary and stool disturbances. In general, patients with gradual progression of the disease after the onset of the disease, which may eventually lead to death, and patients in the advanced stage may develop bulbar palsy, which is mainly manifested as dysarthria, slurred speech, and dysphagia and chewing. Generally, patients occur after the age of 40, and there are more male patients than women, and as the patient's disease progresses, it may cause respiratory muscle paralysis, which is easy to cause respiratory tract infection and cause death.

    The current specific method of this disease can be oral riluzole and symptomatic support.

    The lifespan of a person with MND is related to the type of disease and the age at which it occurs. Due to the unclear motor neuron disease, there is no special and effective targeted means and drugs in Western medicine, and the motor neuron disease is only symptomatic, with poor efficacy and cannot prevent the development of the disease. The detoxification effect of pure Chinese medicine prescriptions, combined with the synthesis of the five elements, can achieve twice the result with half the effort, and the efficacy is far better than that of conventional Chinese and Western medicine.

    Western**. There is no special method, a large number of B vitamins, energy mixture, etc. can be given or injected at acupuncture points with 654-2 and Galantamine injection.

    Chinese medicine**. Motor neuron disease (MND) is a syndrome of impotence in traditional Chinese medicine, which is a syndrome of sluggish and weak limb muscles. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the kidney is the innate foundation, the main essence is stored, and the bone is the marrow.

    In traditional Chinese medicine, it is most closely related to the kidneys, with insufficient congenital endowment, lack of sperm and blood, and inability to nourish muscles, muscles and bones, and gradually muscle weakness and atrophy. At the same time, the spleen and stomach are the foundation of the day after tomorrow, metamorphosis generates qi and blood, nourishes the five internal organs, muscles, muscles and bones, and the spleen is the main muscle, the spleen and stomach are weak, the biochemistry of qi and blood is insufficient, and the muscles are not nourished, so the muscles are atrophied and weak.

    Hello, if you have motor neuron disease, then you can use some traditional Chinese medicine to do it**. This disease must be recuperated in ordinary life, for example, you can do some physiotherapy appropriately, and more physical exercises, which have the best effect on this disease. A medicine can be taken under the guidance of a doctor and followed by a course of treatment.

    According to the situation you described, if you check out motor neuron disease, it is best to choose the method of Western medicine**, of course, Chinese medicine can also play a certain auxiliary effect, but the effect is not as good as Western medicine, the main ingredient of this soup you said is Western medicine, and you must recheck it regularly during the period of taking medicine**. From the perspective of Western medicine, motor neuron disease is a degenerative disease of the nervous system, there is no particularly good way to do so, if traditional Chinese medicine has a certain effect, it is recommended to insist on taking it, strengthen the exercise, and prevent complications.

    Motor neuron is a kind of neurodegenerative disease, its condition is gradually progressed and aggravated, which will affect the limbs and cause quadriplegia, neck muscle weakness, difficulty in raising the head, the patient's inability to take care of himself, difficulty swallowing in the later stage, respiratory muscle paralysis, respiratory failure, and complications such as nutritional disorders, pneumonia, pressure ulcers, and venous thrombosis of the lower limbs.

    Motor neurons can be divided into three types based on symptoms:

    Lower motor neuron type, which usually occurs around the age of 30 years. Under the lower motor neuron (which includes the motor nucleus of the cranial nerve, the anterior horn cell of the spinal cord, and the nerve fibers they emit, which is the last pathway for receiving impulses from various aspects of the pyramidal, extrapyramidal, and cerebellar systems, and is the only pathway for impulses to reach skeletal muscles), the disease usually begins with small muscle weakness and gradual muscle atrophy of the hand, which can affect one or both sides, or start on one side and then spread to the other side. Cranial nerve damage often occurs when the tongue muscles are invaded first, and the tongue muscles are atrophied with tremor, followed by palate, pharyngeal, laryngeal muscles, and masticatory muscles, resulting in slurred speech, difficulty swallowing, and weakness in chewing.

    These include progressive spinal muscle atrophy and progressive bulbar atrophy.

    Motor neuron disease, also known as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, is the first of the five terminal diseases in the world today. This disease is known for its unknown cause, low prevalence, rapid onset, no method, and painful symptoms in the later stages. According to statistics, the incidence of MND is about 3 per 100,000 people, and the prevalence is about 4 to 8 per 100,000 people.

    Because most patients die within three to five years of symptom onset, the incidence of motor neurone disease is close to the prevalence.

    Mr. Jiangsu Shi, 43 years old, was admitted to the clinic in April 2021.

    Mr. Shi reported that the upper and lower limbs were weak, atrophied, tongue muscles atrophied, choking on water, slurred speech, dreaming and waking up easily at night, chest tightness and shortness of breath, dizziness, tinnitus. In a tertiary hospital, muscle biopsy combined with electromyography was used to confirm the diagnosis of "motor neuron disease".

    In the past**: taking liluzole, coenzyme Q10, vitamin B and other nutritional neurological drugs, no obvious effect was seen, and the condition continued to worsen, weight continued to decrease, generalized wandering muscle beating, speech and communication disorders.

    Immediately came to our office for diagnosis and treatment, when the doctor visited: severe atrophy of the upper and lower limbs, weakness, soreness, difficulty in taking care of oneself, difficulty in swallowing, chest tightness, shortness of breath and palpitation, soreness in the waist and knees, dizziness and tinnitus, dry stool, once every 2-3 days, yellow urine 3-4 times a day, nocturia 2-3 times, pale yellow and greasy tongue, tooth marks on the side, fine pulse sink, phlegm-dampness blockage, qi and blood deficiency.

    Using pure Chinese medicine "Yiyuan Muscle Strengthening Formula" plus or minus dozens of kinds of precious Chinese herbal medicines such as whole worm, angelica, purple river, American ginseng, saffron, cordyceps sinensis, etc., one dose a day, twice a day**, two months later, the patient reported that the muscles beating, the soreness of the limbs disappeared, the atrophy of the upper and lower limbs no longer progressed, the sense of weakness was no longer enhanced, and the situation of choking and coughing after drinking water and eating was better than before.

    After 6 months of medication, the drug was stopped for observation, the disease no longer progressed, the weight gradually increased, eating and sleeping were not affected, and simple communication with others was possible.

    It is true that people with motor neurone disease do not live too long, and it is very likely that everyone will hear that they have motor neuron disease, which is basically the same as being declared dead. From the average age of survival, the average number of major reports in China is between 30 and 40 months, and the median may be 3 years. Basically, very few patients last more than 5 years.

    Of course, I have also heard of celebrities, such as the American scientist named Stephen Hawking, who has motor neurone disease, but has lived until he may be 60-70 years old, and he has a very long life, but he is very well supported by American high technology. For ordinary people, it is difficult to reach this level from nursing care or medicine, so the life expectancy of ordinary people is relatively short. But after knowing this situation, you can't be very depressed, and you must actively adjust your emotions to carry out **.

    Motor neurons are neurons that are responsible for transmitting messages from the spinal cord and brain to the muscles and endocrine glands that innervate organ activity. Motor neuron disease (MND) is a rare disease that is a series of chronic progressive neurodegenerative diseases characterized by motor neuron changes. At present, the cause of the disease is not clear, and patients present with muscle weakness, muscle atrophy, bulbar paralysis, etc., and usually have no paresthesias.

    The disease mostly occurs in middle-aged and elderly people, and the course of the disease is mostly 2 to 6 years, and most of them have a poor prognosis, and often die of respiratory muscle paralysis or lung infection due to respiratory muscle involvement.

    The average lifespan of motor neuron patients is five to seven years, and the life span can be appropriately extended with good **. The situation varies depending on the individual's constitution.

    Have motor neuron disease.

    How long can you live, it depends on whether the onset is early or late, and it depends on the effect of ** and exercise, most patients can survive for about 3 to 5 years.

    Motor neuron disease is a very serious disease, and so far there is no way**, once it is detected early, it should be used in a timely manner**, which can be combined with nutritional support **** and symptomatic**, and can also be used with drugs such as neurotrophic factor.

    Physical exercise should be carried out after early diagnosis, which is conducive to controlling the progression of the disease, establishing confidence in overcoming the disease, and maintaining an optimistic attitude. Increase the intake of foods rich in protein and vitamins such as milk, soy products, eggs, fish, fresh vegetables, and fruits.

There will also be misdiagnosis of motor neuron disease, this situation needs to be examined in detail, generally the main feeling is unreliable, must be selected EMG evoked potentials, nerve conduction velocity is necessary, and the examination is carried out at the same time choose to go to a regular hospital for testing.

Hope it helps. There is currently no reliable method for motor neuron disease, it is a refractory disease, and the survival rate after the disease is generally found to be about 5 years, but there are many types of motor neuron disease, and the survival rate is not the same, with an average of about 5 years.

The clinical manifestations of motor neuron disease are mainly lack of strength and muscle atrophy, the muscle atrophy is mainly interosseous muscles and thenar muscles, no strength is first manifested as the inability to lift heavy objects, at this time the condition is mild, will not affect daily life, when the disease further develops, there may be dysphagia, hoarseness, etc., in severe cases, there will be paralysis of respiratory muscles, and then severe respiratory suffering and life-threatening, but the body's sensory nerves are not damaged, all sensations are normal.
