Hi again,
Did you go to the doctor because of specific symptoms associated with Ataxia? What are your symptoms?
Are you unstable when you walk, difficulties picking up objects, headaches, dizziness?

Thank you. Yes it was a walking problem that got me to the doctor. He diagnosed ataxia and sent me on to Mayo for confirmation. It was. I tend to go off to the right and now use a cane. Dropping items is becoming more frequent.
