Hi amit..

My symptoms that got me going to the doctor were severe vertigo and memory blips (does not seem to be related to CMT). Within 6 months I developed sensory symptoms (tingling, vibrating, numbness). Shortly after that fatigue, muscle twitching and muscle spasms. Within 18 months time I have gone from a healthy person to having difficulty walking, pain, balance issues even while sitting and weakness in my arms and legs.

CMT does run in my family and it is a usually a slowly progressive disease.

I am doubting the diagnosis and am waiting for the genetic testing. There are still too many unanswered questions.
