Hi, CMT progresses no matter what you do. There is no magic bullet as there is no treatment/cure for any type of CMT at the present time. However, much research is going on and hopefully one day there will be. Here is a site showing a lot of types of CMT. However, there are over 50 types at the present time and the number is growing.

I hope you get an answer. A neurologist who knows CMT might be very helpful. I'm not certain if that is who you are seeing although your neurologist does sound informed. Take care.
