Yes, 30 is considered "young" for PN.
That is when mine started.(hypothyroid).
Hereditary PNs start young also, some in childhood, but not all.
Seems that drugs can play a part in initiating some hereditary
PNs into activity. There is a study concerning a man who has the genes for CMT, but never had symptoms until he took Levaquin (antibiotic).
When I was 30, there were no drugs for this, except Elavil and thiamine (B1). I just trained myself to not focus on the pain in my feet. The athletic shoes we have today, were not even available then.
