Firstly, I would consult with a GP before taking anything other than your usual medication, although I tried CBD oil and I found it made matters worse. I have Cerebellar Ataxia.

I have EA 2/SCA 6. I have taken CBD oil and saw no benefits. It seemed to make me feel strange.

We also tried THC, which really made my Ataxia/balance worse.

Good luck from Las Vegas.
