A rare deficiency in Cerbellar Ataxia

Is there anyone out there with the same cause of ataxia as me. I have a mutant gene passed on to me by my parents that results in a deficiency of the Emzyme CQ 10 in my body so I am taking supplements.

It would be great if I could contact somebody else with this cause.

Hey David, do you mean what type of Doctor? If so my neurologist was the one who diagnosed the deificiancy. It appears to be the only cause of my ataxia, cerbeller ataxia.

What type of ataxia do you have?

There is plenty to read online reg cq10
