I am so glad to have found this community.

For quite a few years not knowing what was wrong with me, and not being able to get to the root cause of this illness has been so frustrating but finding you all is such a breadth of fresh air.

I never knew the amount of people who are suffering from Ataxia and the different forms that come under the umbrella of Ataxia.

It is nice to now that I am not alone and there are people out there who I can talk to, and who understands me.

Hi Patrick,

I can echo your sentiments! After years of puzzling symptoms and struggling at work, I am so glad to have found a community.
