Nystagmus worse after vestibular physio?

[EleanorS]

I have only got acquired ataxia, not inherited. It is said to have gone through a degenerative phase, but that has only ‘been said’.

I’ve just had some vestibular physio which has made my nystagmus worse. I can’t find any information about this online. Has anyone got any thoughts on this?

no idea, clearly a lot of the Vestibular rehab seems to involve eyes and tracking, the during my Rehab the physio was always getting me to follow her hand and check the tracking of my eyes, so i guess it could effect? but honestly no idea, best to ask the physio?
