It does sound like CMT from what you have posted. And it could have come thru your father the way you describe how he walked.

Symptoms vary greatly even within the same family. That's certainly true in my family. There is no cure/treatment for any type of CMT yet. I do not look for one in my lifetime. There is no magic bullet, supplement and the like. You just deal with the symptoms as they come along. There is lots of research being done that many people are not aware of.

I have done reputable research for almost 30 years. CMT is in my family from way, way back. I'm not certain that there is a "usual" pattern. A person can have CMT and not show any evident symptoms. But they can still pass it on.

Thank you for your reply.
