Guest guest Posted October 5, 2000 Report Share Posted October 5, 2000 Does anyone have the same problem with their thighs or any ideas? I haven't gone back yet Deb Hi - I'm not sure if i have the problem since the thigh in question is on the leg with my bad knee but after 2 rehabs, my thigh has never gotten back to where it use to be. So I had the same question, and I did find an article that said that though rare, upper leg weakness does occur with CMT. Sorry, I don't remember the website that I saw that at.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2000 Report Share Posted October 5, 2000 I<< He said I didn't have the muscle wasting in the calves as other patients of his does. My calves are fairly normal, in fact, my OB always comments on how large they are. My problem is in my thighs. I have very little strength and tone in my upper legs. >> I have CMT2 and my calves are also normal. Doreen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
