Dear Elena,
There are many different diseases which affect the
muscles. These diseases are grouped together as
Neuromuscular disorders. Myopathies are diseases of
the muscles, neuropathies are diseases of the nerves,
and they both can cause muscle wasting and muscular
problems.

You can find a somewhat comprehensive classification
of neuromuscular diseases at the Neuromuscular disease
center

Best of luck
Daniel
