Default Hearing

I have excellent hearing and so did my Mom and those before her. Loss of hearing can be due to many things as Leaf pointed out. We are not immune to anything just because we have CMT.

And, as I said before, CMT is on the same chromosome as HNPP. CMT is a duplication and HNPP is a deletion. Eventually the damage from the episodes of HNPP gets worse and worse over time. The damage from HNPP progresses like CMT does. Symptoms vary greatly even within the same family.

Thanks Di. I hope you get some answers soon. Keep us posted.
