Outlook
People with stiff person syndrome tend to be more vulnerable to falls due to a lack of reflexes and stability. As a result, they can be at a higher risk of serious injuries or even permanent disability. The condition can also progress in some cases and spread to other body areas. Fortunately, if you follow the treatment plan, these symptoms can be improved gradually. The overall outlook will depend on how well you stick to the treatments. Keep in mind that everyone has different responses to treatment. Some people can improve better with physical therapy, while others need medications. [8]
