Thanks! Actually, my doctor ordered genetic tests for Hereditary Neuropathy with Pressure Palsies before I developed the drop foot.

Athena Diagnostics sent a tech to my house to draw blood. From what I saw on the website, the blood tests should also show if I have CMT1 or not.

My neurologist told me he doesn't care what the lab tests say, he's convinced, and that there are so many different types of CMT and people present it in different ways. I know he's right.

Today, I go for evaluation for Physical Therapy. Maybe they will have an opinion.

Lyme Disease is something I thought about, but in Florida? Hm, I wonder if that could happen.
