Does anyone in your family show symptoms similar to you? Have you ever had DNA blood testing for Charcot Marie Tooth (CMT)? They can now test for 22 + types of it. And even if you do not test positive, it does not mean that you do not have it.

CMT symptoms vary greatly even within the same family. Symptoms can become evident when you are young, old, or in-between or they may never be that evident.

www.athenadiagnostics.com has a program to help with the cost of testing, which is expensive if you have to test for all the types they can test for. Your insurance might cover some of it as well. Hope you find some answers.
