I read in one of your posts that your father was diagnosed with CMT2. (One of the 2's anyway). If that is true, then you would not have CMT1X because your father would have had to have passed that on to you. I don't know if you have any brothers but if your father had CMT1X, he would not have passed that to any of his sons, only to his daughters.

But the fact that you posted that he has CMT2 makes it impossible for you to have CMT1X as you have found out. Or CMT1A for that matter. Please post the results you get for 1B and 1E.

It really would only make sense that if indeed you do have CMT, that it would be CMT2 the same as your father. On the other hand, perhaps you do not have CMT. Thank you for your post.
