Hi, Statins are an uncertain or minor risk for people who have Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT). They have not found evidence that they can worsen existing neuropathy for a CMTer. However, I would not take them. There are other things to do.

I do know of some people in the general population who take them and complain about being weaker, etc.

Thank you for your informative post.
