Yes, that is correct. I was diagnosed with idiopathic sensorimotor axonal polyneuropathy. The neurologist had a strong suspicion of CMT, due to the exam and nerve conduction test results along with the context of deformities of the feet that I have had since birth (partially corrected by casts during infanthood). He said it was very likely that I have CMT but discouraged me from pursuing further evaluation. A podiatrist and a physical therapist who specializes in people with deformities of the lower extremities also told me that they thought it very likely that I have CMT. I was diagnosed with club feet at birth, but in the wake of my neurological problems, I've been told that was likely a misdiagnosis and that my deformed feet are most likely due to CMT. I'm researching to find a neurologist who is interested in investigating this because I think it could be important for me and others in my family to be sure, especially because of the risks of drugs on the list for people with CMT.

Thanks for your replies everyone.

When I say a few I'm talking like 2-3 beers on weekends.

The period where I drank heavily was a very dark period in my life. I strongly believe it was very *situational* alcohol abuse. I am in a massively better headspace now and I don't believe it will be an issue. Evidence of this is that before that negative period I would only socially drink and it was never a problem.
