Hello,

In your case, it is necessary for a genetic study for possible inherited causes of cerebellar atrophy. So, it is necessary to discuss this with your Neurologist. Also, a brain MRI is necessary to evaluate correctly the degree of the atrophy, if you did not have one previously.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
