Ms. Mоnrоe, а 27-yeаr-оld womаn, presented with a progressive history of gait imbalance, hand incoordination, and "slurred speech." Her symptoms worsened around her menstrual periods and when she was nervous or fatigued; they had worsened slightly during a pregnancy. During the speech examination, she admitted to an approximately 10-year history of "slurred speech" that did not seem to be worsening. Conversational speech was characterized by occasional irregular articulatory breakdowns. Infrequently, rate was mildly slowed and multisyllabic words were produced with excess and equal stress. Prolonged "ah" was unsteady. Speech AMRs were slow but not noticeably irregular. What do you suspect the prognosis is for her condition?
