Ataxia as a result of trauma or infection may be a temporary condition, or leave some degree of permanent disability. Hereditary ataxias are usually progressive syndromes, with symptoms becoming more disabling over varying periods of time. [encyclopedia.com]

There is gradual progression of disability, with death occurring 10-30 years after onset [ 10 ]. Spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 (SCA2) SCA2 is due to a mutation on the number 12 chromosome and it is also known as Wadia-Swami syndrome [ 11 ]. [patient.info]

Treatment and prognosis Edit There is no known cure for spinocerebellar ataxia, which is a progressive disease (it gets worse with time), although not all types cause equally severe disability. [psychology.wikia.com]

Other forms of ataxias can present with additional neurological symptoms, including tremor, epilepsy, spasticity, dementia, and/or neuropathy, and some patients demonstrate deafness and intellectual disability. [centogene.com]
