There is also Heriditary Neuropathy with Liability to Pressure Palsies (HNPP). Here is an interesting site concerning it:

http://www.hnpp.org

This is the opposite of CMT1A. There is a deletion with HNPP and a duplication with CMT1A. The part of getting numb but then you get better is a thought as far as HNPP. But only a thought.

DNA blood testing would give you the answer for this as well as the types of CMT that they now can test for. However, with CMT, you do not get better. It is progressive. http://www.athenadiagnostics.com
