    Hello Robin,  I am not sure what your diagnosis is, however, I have experienced walking into walls when aiming for a door way and have had timrs when I cannot articulate my words.  A kind of slurring.  Does this sound similar?  I have dystonia

    I would look into spinocerebellar ataxia, a rare neurological disease known as the "drunk disease," because that's what you look and act like.

      How would you know what I look and act like?  I was refering to my husband.  He has parkinson's and some of the meds cause extra movements.
