What could it be if a male age 49 since August 2011 has had trouble walking and no is to the point where a walker is required, and hands are shaking, and has slurred speech. The doctors tried to remove fluid from the spine and could not remove any whether it be from there was no fluid or low fluid. There has been blood test done but the results have not come back yet.

Hello,

A brain and cervical spine MRI is necessary to investigate for any lesion or disease of the central nervous system. If this test results normal, a neuro-degenerative disorder should be suspected.
