I never was clumsy or had trouble walking or any of that. Not until much later in life. Also, at this time my hands are not affected.
But then with CMT symptoms vary greatly even within the same family. And there are so many types of it. I have one of the most common types.

By reading this posts, it seems as though when I read generic symptoms online that fit CMT you don't quite fit into that category. I thought legs were impacted most in CMT and foot abnormalities seemed common, causing gait issues. And it seems your progression has been slow? I am not sure. I need to read back through some of your posts so you don't have to rehash all your symptoms. I guess I should have probably focused on "symptoms can vary greatly between family members" when reading online. Sometimes reading things online can be misleading, I assume. I need to start reading more scientific, peer reviewed resources and journals. And you are right, there are so many types and variants. I am happy you do not currently suffer in your arms or hands. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Thanks for your input in my case.
