Thank you for the reply. It sounds like you have CMT in your family bigtime. Whatever type one has is the type that you all will have. You probably know this. CMT symptoms vary greatly even in the same family as you have found out in yours and I have in mine. CMT symptoms can become evident when you are young, old, or in-between or not be that evident at all.

I can understand what you are saying about the light bulbs and being hot but she doesn't feel it. Makes sense. Also her "itchy" feet would more than likely be the nerves. Bet you know that too. And the blisters and sores because she can't feel. It's always good to check her feet most every day. Perhaps she needs some adjustments to her AFO's. And maybe she already has had some but the AFO's shouldn't be doing that to her from what I understand. They should fit well.

I do hope that you get all the help you need to deal with all of her symptoms. It does sound like you are getting it and that there probably is more going on than CMT. I wish you well and thanks again
