Two Steps Towards Speedier Ataxia Diagnosis

0 Replies

Step towards speedier ataxia diagnosis to change people's lives.

"My diagnosis process was incredibly slow, difficult and horrendous. I was passed from specialist to specialist. The doctors did not seem to believe me at all. It was very humiliating and frustrating."

This International Ataxia Awareness Day (25 Sept 2021)...

1) Sign up to our IAAD campaign and we'll send you a supporter pack and the Medical Guidelines.

2) Get sponsored to walk, wheel or run to your local GP surgery and give the Guidelines to help raise awareness of ataxia and speed up diagnosis!

For more information and to take part in the campaign, click here: ataxia.org.uk/iaad2021/
