Guest guest Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 Karon, In the first X rays I saw of my back prior to 2002's surgery, the doc pointed out to me that my right hip was slightly higher than the left. He said this was nothing to worry about and 5% of the general population has this. The more I thought about it I came to understand why my orthotics are so different for each foot. They have different support to equalize hip/leg ratio equality. As for footdrop, yes, persons with CMT can have footdrop in both feet. Sure hope you can find a good orthopedist for your back. That degenerative disk may have a solution. If you want the name of a stellar surgeon specializing in all disorders of the spine, I suggest Stuart Hutchinson of Santa Barbara. Definitely worth the drive or hour flight. Best, Gretchen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
