Ataxia Awareness Session II The Classifications , Ed Schwartz 

This man is awesome. I have learned more from him about ataxia than from my neurologist. I also have cerebral ataxia. My dad also had it.

Thank you for sharing these videos. I Have had Ataxia for 37 years and Ed is 100% correct, protecting yourself (from falls) is IMPORTANT. Even though it is very uncomfortable, I am leearning to speak up for myself. Thank you. ☺

Thank you so much for sharing!

i have a friend who has sensory ataxia and i want to learn more about it so i can somewhat relate more to what he is going through and somehow be able to help him feel better and do better... i hope more will be educated about this

My ataxia was from a birth defect. I got diagnosed with cerebellar hypoplasia at age 50 when I had problems walking. It would be nice if there was someone with this problem who could talk about their challenges.

Cutting out gluten soy and chemicals has worked for me , airborne particles effect me the most.

I would like to hear more about the types, specifically (the one that runs in my family) Machado Joseph Disease I believe it is SCA3, from the research I have done.

Unfortunately these kinds of labels are pretty worthless as one Doctor will say one thing while another Doctor will say it is another. There is no real consensus even among many of the Ataxia Groups. It ultimately also won't change whatever treatment plan your doctor comes up with. If you don't like the way this doctor is treating it, just switch doctors and the new one will almost assuredly not use the same treatment plan!

Very informative video. I am 81 yrs of . Just today in evening as I was bending down I was feeling of being dragged down to floor. This hashapppened after 65 yrs. I qas hit with iron bar when I was 16 yrs of age. I don't know what to make of of it.

How fast can ataxia progress if it begins in the later years?

Have you reasearched stem cell therapy for this?

Life’s cruel and then you die - tell that to all the AI immortality poison pushers and believers out there (from a TBI/Ataxic at ~8mos, age 40) 😣

I used to play football at that same age best times I had yes I was a tomboy at that time but as time went on I grew out of that into girly things
