Thanks for letting us know Di. At least you have a diagnosis now. Is your son having symptoms? I can't remember if you said.

As for others in the family, as I've posted before, symptoms of CMT can become evident when you are young, old, or in-between. Or they might not be that evident at all. Symptoms vary greatly even within the same family. So who knows what will/might turn up in your family. It came from somewhere in the family as that's how CMT1A is passed on. 50/50% chance for each child to have it passed to them.

Remember, there is no magic bullet or supplement for symptoms of CMT. Just eat healthy, regular exercise but not too much (your body will tell you), stay away from stress as much as possible, etc.

Take care and keep us posted.
