Guest guest Posted September 23, 2010 Report Share Posted September 23, 2010 I have been listening to the interviews on Lenka's blog where she interviews 3 people with CMT. Quite a bit was shared about fatigue. So I am wondering what causes the fatigue. Is it just a general tiredness such as is experienced by people with fibromyalgia or similar illnesses. Or is it tied to the fact that so much energy is used up in using arm and leg muscles that aren't as efficient due to the nerve damage which then affects the muscles. I have absolutely no fatigue- but at this point I also have no problems with walking or using my hands (its mostly sensory at this point). So I'm wondering if all people with CMT experience extreme fatigue (like was talked about in the interviews), and if so, at what point it occurs in the progression of the disease.
