You should see a neurologist for evaluation to determine why this is occurring. You can only be diagnosed by being evaluated. If this is new, you need to be evaluated so you can be diagnosed and treated, if needed. So, see a neurologist. Good luck to you!

.Do you also have dizziness when your gait pulls to the left? Dizziness along with balance issues are the 2 most common symptomsof vestibular dysfunction. There also are causes of gait disturbances. I agree that you should consult a neurologist for evaluation. Appropriate testing will be done.
