[|AI|]  Hello! Welcome and thank you for asking on Chat Doctor! I carefully passed through your question and would explain that MSA is a progressive degenerative disorder of the central nervous system. It causes orthostatic hypotension, causing a decrease in blood pressure when standing up. This contributes to chronic fatigue and difficulty in the body balance. From the other hand it also affects the cerebellum, which is the posterior part of our brain, which is the main region of our brain to help maintain our body balance. So unsteady gait is another feature of this disorder. Unfortunately there is no cure to this disorder and no treatment is possible for these symptoms. Patients are not able to walk in the later stage of the disease. I recommend discussing with his doctor on these issues. Kind regards,
