Thanks for the explanation. Interesting site. I should have caught that. Body builders can and do use Creatine. Interesting site:

However, it will not build any muscle that is affected by CMT. Those muscles are atrophied (dead). Healthy muscles yes.

Thanks Mrs D. I definitely know that info... having worked in nutrition. I know that high creatinine is problematic, but abnormally low must also signify something. Why are mine working so hard? I have hardly any muscle-and they are quite weak and always always sore whether I have exerted them or not. I was just curious if there were any obvious ties to neuropathy. Obviously if none of my doctors have said anything yet, then there isn't.

I'm also well aware of the issues with clonazepam withdrawal. I only take .25-.5mg every other day. I used to take .25 daily. And tapered off of it with no problems. Now its only used ifI am too anxious to sleep , or something has triggered a panic attack.
I am still curious though if its long term use has contributed to my nerve damage. I guess I'll never know for sure.

Thanks guys.
I'll mention CMT to my doc. I wonder if DNA testing is covered by OHIP. I'll ask.
You have all been such a great help. And very speedy with responses. I hope to give back to the community some day once my situation is under control and I have advice to give.

Thought so. Muscle wasting....

I wanted to add that I have overcome the bloating and pressure by eating gluten and dairy free . Oh , also eggs. It could be coincidence. My energy levels are pretty good.

Has anyone heard of Kratom for pain by chance ??
