A member asked:
What different types of ataxia are out there?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Complicated: Motor incoordination can affect any aspect of motion, gait, speech, etc. Yours is a complex question but basically there are many different types of hereditary ataxias, then there are other types that are related to injury, illness, or things like stroke/ms. Those are technically called secondary types. Visit www.Ataxia.Org.
