Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Does Spinocerebellar Degeneration Cause Breathing Problem
My question is, that I have a rare disorder it s called Spinocerebellar degeneration. With having this desease, does it give you breathing problems? It has been like this for a long time. Can you give me all the symptoms of it? The doctor I saw at Chapel Hill and said it is affecting my brain, cerebellum. He said at time,.. it will keep shrinking.
I am sorry you are having this condition. I understand it is a frustrating long term condition. Spinocerebellar degeneration mostly affects coordination and balance but the shortness of breath is a possible symptom with it as well, so it is important that you discuss this with your doctor.
I hope this answers your query. I remain at your disposal in case further medical assistance is needed.
Regards, Dr. Antoneta Zotaj, General and Family Physician
