Two of my three biological children are left handed, so we have them in all sizes.
I was reading and writing well before school started, and was left handed, but in those days they switched you if they could. Result- abysmal handwriting and a hard wired inability to tell right from left.
I did not have the burning feet until late in the game, about 47, but I did have leg pain, high arches, weak, skinny ankles, restless legs, and an odd gait all along.
I have the neuromuscular issues from the CMT, but I suspect the SFN causes it's own pain apart from the muscle pain and spasms. I would be completely non-functional without pain relief. I am slowly getting there with it and I can see the time in the near future when the pain meds won't make much difference. Stairs and ramps are my nemesis. I can barely lift my feet.
