Hi, am trying to find some reliable, patient friendly information about cerebellar atrophy - have tried google but everything is too acedemic - anyone got any ideas?

benobs....unfortunately cerebellar atrophy is an academic subject.

It just means death of the cells of the cerebellum and in itself is the end result of some other disorder.

Usually picked up by a Neurologist or ENT surgeon because of the symptoms of dizziness and unsteadiness.

Sorry that this is a bit sketchy, but what do you want to know?

We have a resurce table at the course and i usually try and make it information that is pertinent t the participants. one of the people who has applied has put down cerebellar atrophy as their condition, so i wanted some nice, pt friendly info to put on the table so that othrs can learn about his ondition, or to perhaps gve hm some info he didnt know LREADY
