Guest guest Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 Hello, I am 39 yrs old and have CMT. I am not sure what type, I had surgery on my righy foot at age 12 after several bad sprains. Since that time it has not affected me until around 2 yrs ago, my gait is getting worse and more noticable. I have the inherited type, passed from my father. He and my mother divorced when I was young and the information I have on him is that he has severe atrophy in hands and feet, with several surgerys that failed, he is now using leg braces and can hardly hold a coffee mug. I am the mother of 4 Children. My 22 yr. old son has inherited this and is at this point already worse than I am. So far none of my other 3 show signs , but being the type I have shows up mostly in the teens I am crossing my fingers. Gayla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
