Guest guest Posted April 20, 2004 Report Share Posted April 20, 2004 .. I can remember my mother having red palms and also my grandmother, but they did not have any other signs of CMT. Occasionally I get pains in my fingers. I am still able to function normally, what ever normal is. I thought I was the only one with red palms ! Thanks Barb.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2004 Report Share Posted April 20, 2004 Yes, the palms of my hands are reddish and tingle most of the time. The neurologist I saw at the Univ.of Wis. in Madison pointed out the redness on my palms and asked if they tingled, and that was the first time I realized that they did! He said I have the CMT in my hands too. The redness indicates inflammation. My feet are also very red when I take off shoes and sox. My hands don't really bother me except when I drive for a long time, as I did recently on a solo weekend trip, 6 hours each way. The extra tingling and soreness then lingered for several days.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 I have been reading where a few of you all has stated that the palm of your hands are red. Mine are too, but also my fingertips, & the bottoms of both of my feet. I have been diagnosed with Diabetes, Neuropathy & RSD, so now i',m just confused with the RSD, not knowing a thing about it, anyway, I would just like some relief from the pain & depression! By the way, I burn really bad & what started out like a tingle, now has become more like a deep electric shock, the kind of hurt that you don't easily forget. Please take care of yourselves and don't let it get as bad as mine. Thanks for listening to me, Barb from Indiana....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
