Hi,

First of all, you should do some investigations such as; measuring blood pressure and fasting blood glucose. Second, the hormonal therapy for the contraception or the replacement therapy for women can decrease the level of vitamin B complex in the blood, resulting in sensory ataxia. Third, thyroid gland diseases and renal diseases can affect the peripheral nerves and cause similar symptoms.

Moreover, poor diet, too much fat, sugar and salt can affect peripheral nerves as well as the central nervous system. Fourth, Cobasoft cannot cure sensory ataxia alone. You should take vitamin B complex supplement once per day after meals and folic acid supplement once per day before meals besides Cobasoft. Benfotiamine 40 mg can help you.

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

Regards,
Dr. Mustafa, Neurologist
