Dear Cclive 35, What is carvernoma and what type of surgery did you have? I had a sleep study and MRI when diagnosed with my ataxia (11 years ago) and I have sleep apnea (use a C-Pap machine when I sleep at night). My neuro said many people with ataxia have sleep apnea. Does carvernoma have anything to do with that? :o)
