Guest guest Posted February 7, 2002 Report Share Posted February 7, 2002 Melody, I know you are very relieved with your test results, but what was the doctor's diagnosis? I am thankful you have an efficient MDA clinic to go to, but sometimes the waiting can wear one totally out. Keep us posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 8, 2002 Report Share Posted February 8, 2002 He believes it is CMT, but of course, there are other types that can't be tested yet. But soon, he says, so I suppose we'll do it again sometime. Melody <lisarich.com@w...> wrote: I know you are very relieved with your test results, but what was the doctor's diagnosis?

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2002 Report Share Posted February 8, 2002 Thanks for sharing Melody. Does the doctor feel you need AFOs or orthotics? Just carry on as best as you can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 10, 2002 Report Share Posted February 10, 2002 : I've had AFO's for about 12 years now. I've had good care from my physiatrist, but wanted to get registered with MDA for the genetic test, a scooter one day, etc. He thought I have done remarkably well considering there's no muscle left in my feet and lower legs. Now that I am home and can manage my fatigue better I'm doing alright. Melody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
