A young mother's journey with her new diagnosis of ataxia. See how she copes with the news and strives to make her daily life better.
Ataxia is a term for a group of disorders that affect co-ordination, balance and speech. Any part of the body can be affected, but people with ataxia often have difficulties with: balance and walking. speaking. swallowing.
Ataxia is usually caused by damage to a part of the brain known as the cerebellum, but it can also be caused by damage to the spinal cord or other nerves.

Sunny, you are beyond an amazing woman!! I love your positive attitude, inner strength & faith! What a beautiful family you have! Your daughters are darling! I feel so fortunate to have met your Mom (LT Fitness). She shared the link info so I could watch your video. Others who have had a similar diagnosis will greatly benefit from watching this ~ as well as people who might be having symptoms. 🙏 Siete una bellissima famiglia Italiana!! 🇮🇹🙏🔆🙏

If you haven’t tried this please try!! You can improve. Start a gluten free diet for 8-10 weeks, no diet soda. I was just like you, my psychiatrist figured it out. My whole life changed. Please try this. Read the book Grain Brain…..Lori RPh 🙏🌷

I can relate totaly. I was diagnosed with Friedreich-Ataxia in 2021, but the first Symptoms started to show around 2017. My Neurologist told me today that there is a medication on the market as of last year. It stops the disease and it repairs damages done by it reversible uo to two years. He wouldn´t prescribe it to me though, because it is so expensive and he want´s me to try and get it over a special study program ithat I participate in. Ask your neurologist for Skyclarys, Sunny... maybe you´re lucky and you get a prescription, I wish you all the best...

Please start a gluten free diet. You will get better. I had the same thing. The fatigue went away as well. I had a brilliant doctor. There is no lab test for “gluten intolerance”. You can explore online for more info!! Lori RPh
