When we think of neurology, we generally think of the brain. Neurology also includes the spinal cord and the extensive structure of nerves that control all the functions of the body.
The nervous system is immensely complex, leading to hundreds of different neurological conditions, affecting millions of people worldwide. They are the leading cause of disability globally. The most common neurological conditions include:
Conditions differ in symptoms and effects
Each condition differs in symptoms and effects, and each person with a specific condition is affected differently. But for all the differences, they all have something in common:
- the shock and fear a diagnosis brings
- the coming to terms with a new life direction
- regular medical interventions
- impact on work or study
- effect on family and close relationships
- worry about the future
Neurological conditions affect the whole person potentially bringing physical, cognitive and behavioural changes. Here at the Neurology Support Centre, we can’t provide medical treatments, but we aim to support the quality of life of those affected with a holistic whole-body approach.
