What to do about infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Parents need to take: the baby to a geneticist for evaluation & molecular genetic testing to confirm the genetic mutation inherited from both of them, as each child of theirs will have a 25% chance of having INAD. Though there are overlapping types, Intellectual Disability, Motor Impairment, uncoordinated eye movements & other symptoms worsen with age in all. Apply for SSI & Katie Beckett funding at the same time.
