Hi Susanne,

They "can" but they do not have to retest for CMT patients. If you go see a neurologist regularly they will pretty much always want to do retesting. Again, for their own benefit. Nothing says that you cannot refuse the test.

The warm and cold thing before testing has been discussed before. The room, etc. was never warmed up when I had it done. But I do know other people where they did warm it up. Go figure. Not certain that it makes a difference. However, I have read that if it is extremely cold outside you should wait in a warm room for awhile. Also, it does make a difference as well for pain as to the person who is doing the test. I think the one who did mine did not know much. JMO

This pertains to CMT.
