Guest guest Posted September 17, 2010 Report Share Posted September 17, 2010 Hi Christy and welcome to our network. CMT goes back in the human family 6-7 million years. Researchers have found many different genes responsible for the many types. Type X is the second most common type and since your brother has type X, then you will most likely have it also. Even though we all have CMT here, we are all differently affected, as are people within the same family. If you ask your neurologist about the DNA test, he can order it and go from there based on your family history. Gretchen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
