All of my symptoms have exacerbated and my arms are now involved.
Well since I have never had a EMG I will just see how much deterioration, in the last 30 years, or it could indicate that it is small fiber neuropathy, which would then require a skin punch...
The increase in Lyrica has not helped for the nerve pain, but I am having blurred vision problems, so I will have to talk to the doctor about that.
The reason I asked about the 1a DNA test, my Rheumitologist suggested I get the test, regarding my family history. She was suggesting just the CMT 1a not all of them...
