Re: Introducing myself - Joanie

[Guest guest]

HI Joanie,

Fancy meeting you here. Welcome!

I'm also Type 2, " a known varient. " Mother of 2 sons who didn't inherit. It

seems to only affect females in our family, although this varient is supposed

to affect mostly males.

My grandmother, aunt and mom had very thin calves and CMT (not diagnosed

whiIe they were living). I have normal calves and CMT. CMT may not be

consistent, even within a family! None of us had the very high arches, just

low ones.

My sis (no CMT) is a quilter, but I don't have the finger coordination nor

the patience for such work, sorry to say.

I was the first family member to be diagnosed. I was in my 50s.
