Someone Asked What's MSA? It Stands For Multiple System Atrophy

A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭

You can find MSA information at mayo clinic.org Multiple system atrophy, hope this helps. My biggest problem with MSA is my high blood pressure laying down and soon as I get up very low blood pressure. It effects body temperature hot and cold. I was getting 180/190/200 range over 90/105 etc. Low 75/47 etc. Joy

Thank you Joy. I have never heard of MSA.
I have had blood pressure issues since my early 60’s. It appears mine are heredity from my father who died at 70 from a heart attack. I had a mild one in July and they have me on meds. My doctor said he would do a new valve if they had one that he needs for my problem. But, that one is in use in other countries, but not approved in the states.

I am with you on your answer. Glad someone raised the discussion on the hot and cold changes that PD. may cause.
