The cerebellum is responsible for coordination of movements, balance, and posture. Dysfunction or damage in this area can result in difficulties with walking a straight line and simple motor movements, which are symptoms commonly associated with Lyme disease. There is no evidence to suggest that the other areas listed (reticular formation, hippocampus, corpus callosum) are directly related to these specific symptoms of Lyme disease.
