I was finally referred to a Podiatrist at a bigger hospital and she took one look at me and said I was classic for CMT and diagnossed me on the spot she said I could get genetic testing done but it wouldn't change anything so unless I need to not going to bother. Just glad to have an answer to my pain.

Hi, Memabe,
I'm sorry you have CMT but glad you have an answer.
One reason to go to a neurologist is to get confirmation of the diagnosis, which you have decided not to pursue, but another is that he/she can refer you to other health professionals who may be able to help with practical things like exercises and footwear.
I hope that your sons have not inherited it, and that you will be able to get the help and support you need,.
Hi Memabe,
Great that you got a diagnosis however this diagnosis is no fun. But you already have all kind of nasty symptoms and health conditions so you know.
Can you make a picture of your feet and lower legs and post it here? I am very curious, as I am myself awaiting diagnosis for years now, what was classic CMT according to the hospital?
I would but do not see a place to add pics
I have often wondered how people post pics on here!
If you open a new post you can post a picture. Or you can send a picture in a personal message.

Hi I still haven't forgot about your pics still trying to figure it out I dont get on site much either so unless a post pops up in my e mail I simply forget.
