Hi Ron,
CMT is just hereditary neuropathy, there are many variants, sometime the axons go first, sometimes the myelin, and onset and symptoms vary greatly, but if your mom has it too, you probably have CMT. Not everyone has deformity, I have very high arches, and my toes are more or less going their own way now that I can neither feel nor move them, but while extremes make for good pictures, they are not the norm.
