PROGNOSIS
Pure and uncomplicated can be managed and cured without much difficulty but those having some 'habits', are not so easy to cure.

But, it can be easily differentiated from other diseases of Nervous system, ataxia, brain tumors, digestive disorders, liver disorders. As for cardiac disorders, the totality of symptoms doesn't afford much chance to single out the contributory cause(s). The physician can help the patient to a limited extent only, provided the patient is Honest and forthright in his disclosures. An adamant and reluctant patient is difficult to cure, due to his negative approach to almost every aspect of life. A patient, with reserved disposition, is still more a dilemma for the doctor.
