Hypertrophic olivary degeneration

Posted by patschlenz @patschlenz, May 21 11:28pm

I was recently diagnosed with HOD small vessel brain disease. My symptoms are mainly balance issues. I am getting a second opinion at St. Louis neurology was wondering if anyone else had this disease

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Stroke & Cerebrovascular Diseases Support Group.

Hi @patschlenz. Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I moved your post to start a new discussion in the Stroke & Cerebrovascular Diseases support group, since hypertrophic olivary degeneration is a useful discussion on its own.

When will you be getting your second opinion? Will you share more about the balance issues you've experienced and how they affect your daily life?
