Guest guest Posted July 13, 2002 Report Share Posted July 13, 2002 Thank you all for your insight/ experience with your surgeries. Gretchen & , you raised quite a few questions for me that inspired me to do a little more research before I decide for sure I am going through with the surgery. I made a bunch of phonecalls...to the neurologist who referred me for further questions, to the podiatrist who would perform the surgery, the orthotist I go to for possible contacts, an MDA representative who is a good resource....so I am on my way towards more info. You're right, maybe I am just not prepared mentally for this yet, and I may still have other options. I am alsos going to check into possibly puchasing birkenstocks style of hiking boots. I wear birks a lot, which never rub my toes.....even though they are expensice, they would be more affordable than surgery at this point. ANyway, thank you so much for your thoughts...hearing from others with CMT, even if we are at different places, always helps me sort through what I need to do...and it usually involves trusting my instincts. We'll be in touch. Have a great weekend..... Mamie I'll let you know if I cancel or go through with it...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
