Motor neuron disease is a progressive degenerative disease of upper and lower MOTOR neurons in the spinal cord, cranial nerve motor nuclei and within the cortex.(spinothalamic = sensory)

M:F = 3:2

Symptoms usually present between the ages of 50-70, and include progressive weakness, muscle wasting, and muscle fasciculations; spasticity or stiffness in the arms and legs; and overactive tendon reflexes. Patients may present with symptoms as diverse as a dragging foot, unilateral muscle wasting in the hands, or slurred speech.

Degeneration is of motor neurons only not cognitive impairment.
