As far as my "core" being bad. He compared it to an electrical wire. He said the outside sheathing was fine, but the inside wire, ( maybe he didn't say core), was the problem that I had.
I see some folks suggest taking Omega-3 for the nerves. I'll start with this. It can't hurt

Sounds like the axon. Dilantin has an uncertain or minor risk for a CMTer.

I don't have anyone else in the family with a history of neuropathy. My toes don't have "pain" like some people do. Just a slight burning or numbness where the toes meet the foot. I really only notice this after I kick my shoes off in the evening. But the walking is more flatfooted than anything. It is very frustrating, to say the least. With all the information gleaned here, maybe I can find a resolution to this problem.
Thanks,
Gene
