one of the guys I ride with had something like that several years ago. I can not tell you the details cuz they are not mine to tell and I'd probably get it wrong anyway, but I can tell you he has serious balance issues but can still ride a bike, and does, quite a bit.
As I understand it, you don't actually balance a bike; you keep it upright by steering. Unless you're riding no hands, balance isn't really involved.
One way or another, I wish you a speedy recovery.
