Cerebellum atrophy with no known cause

@dd2312 the more I learn about Ataxia the more I think that it’s very real for me.
My gait, uncoordinated movements and vision issues are pointing in that direction.
Thankfully, the PA in my neurologist office trained at a world renowned neurology center. I believe he is the one who can help me more than the doctor!

@SusanEllen66 Gait, coordinating movement and the coordination of moving your eyes in conjunction with your balance (eye muscles are innervated by cranial nerves that are coordinated by the cerebellum) all point to cerebellum. This all makes sense.
It’s great that your PC can be most helpful. If you haven’t already, please ask the PA how gait, coordination of movement and eye movement are all part of the function of the cerebellum. Please ask the PA to show you a model or a diagram of the cerebellum and where it is in relationship to your brain. I find models and pictures are most helpful in these explanations.
