Brief Answer:
Yes, recovery occurs.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for posting your query.

I have noted your symptoms and they are related to damage to cerebellum.

However, I would like to reassure you that recovery does occur in most cases. The recovery is slow and it continues for up to two years after the brain injury/surgery.

Physiotherapy and regular exercises would speed up the recovery.

I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.

Wishing you good health,
