Actually, my brother has a problem with his feet and his gait and has since birth. He wore orthopedic shoes as a baby/toddler. I don't think my parents were able to find a diagnosis for him.

I have arches like you wouldn't believe. I have all the classic symptoms of CMT, it's just been progressing in a asymmetric way, sort of quickly. When I went to my physical therapy evaluation yesterday, the technologist asked me why this was happening, and when she looked at my feet she said "ohhh, I see".

There have always been problems with me tripping over my own feet, dreaded running in school even though I was fit. I guess I'll just wait and see what the HNPP results say and continue with PT.

If CMT is progressive and that turns out to be my diagnosis, will I continue physical therapy?

Thanks for your replies, by the way.
