Guest guest Posted February 2, 2000 Report Share Posted February 2, 2000 CMT can be life threatening and it can also lead to opportunistic infections that can be life threatening. I take that very seriously since my son is only 14 and also my sister had CMT and MS together so I have to deal with that in the future maybe. I have respiratory problems too. So like we all say it is different in us all and some worse than others. Donna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems somewhat acute to me. As far as being life threatening??? Well, to the best of my knowledge , it is not. Although I do think it is life altering. CMT affects my life daily. I have to exercise hard and alot, just to be able to get through a day. But then it exhausts me too... pros and cons. But ya do what ya gotta do!!! Becca >> I have been told it was life threatening too. CMT can effect the lungs ,chest and heart muscles. I know someone that has been dxed with atrophy of the heart muscles CMT releted. jenny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
