Deteriorating acquired ataxia

[planetzed]

Hello,I have had acquired ataxia since 2014 which has been stable until now.

I am now finding increased tremors in my hands and a very poor balance/gait problems. Indeed I have had 2 instances where I couldn't walk at all without help from my wife and son .

I have epilepsy and wondered whether the pills have anything to do with it.

I am on Lamotrigine and Clobezam atm .

It’s possible.. your changes in symptoms are related to your specific ataxia diagnosis

Or..they could be side effects of the medication. This link gives information about potential side effects..

For the best explanation speak to your Neurologist
