Guest guest Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 Hi! My name is Cheryl Hamilton. I am 61 years old, live in Fairfield Glade, TN and I have CMT. I was diagnosed about 20 years ago, but never had the blood test. My left foot and ankle are by far in the worst shape as I have had a break and numerous sprains over the years. I have a brace but hardly ever wear it because I don't want to become dependent upon it. The best thing for me is water aerobics, which I do 4-5 times a week, as long as my foot isn't hurting. I feel blessed that I can still walk around but get down sometimes because of my limitations...very frustrating at times...as you all know. I have never talked to anyone or met anyone else with CMT. Last year I offered to CMTA to start a support group in my area but never heard back from them. I agree that there should be more public knowledge about CMT. Most people only associate CMT with Country Music Television! Anyway, I would love to join your group to learn and share thoughts and experiences about this disease. Thank you.
