As of today, I am really into my health and always looking for new ways to improve. I run 2-3 miles every other day, eat healthy, and am really proactive about my injuries.
I guess my question is, will the cerebellum repair itself? Will I ever get my balance and equilibrium back?
The fact that you can actually run says to me that your cerebellum is not as bady damaged as you think. People with cerebellar problems cannot even hop on one foot
