Members overwhelmingly confirmed experiencing balance issues and jerky movements, with many describing dropping or spilling things frequently, stumbling, and needing mobility aids like walkers to prevent falls. Several members shared helpful management strategies, including meclizine for balance problems, magnesium or Epsom salt baths for muscle pain, gabapentin for nerve pain, and using humor or mantras like 'Webbles Wabble and sometime we fall down' to cope emotionally with frustrating symptoms. A recurring theme was that these symptoms can vary in severity, with some experiencing mild issues that come and go while others require daily assistive devices, and many noted the importance of staying aware and adapting to these unpredictable challenges.

Let me be more specific: I have a walker now at 45 yrsold because I am off balance and fall; I twitch in my legs, hands, fingers, and arms.
