I visited with my Mom this afternoon, wanted to ask her about the families, if they also had PN. Turns out, my Mom and Dad had it, my Aunt on my Dads side, my great grandfather on my Dad's side, and my grandfather on my Mom's side! Boy did I score the gene pool! Burning foot and hand pain with my mom, but she also is experiencing Electric shock pain all over, sound like mainly sensory nerves. My Dad had more of the motor nerve damage, but also sensory.
My great grandfather on my Dad's side was the son of Heber C Kimball, who was the vice President of LDS, and helped found Utah, he had leg problems from early age, but never got the DNA testing... ;o)
Seems kind of like a slam dunk for Hereditary Neuropathy. I will have plenty of evidence for the Neurologist next month when I see him...
