Guest guest Posted February 7, 2000 Report Share Posted February 7, 2000 As far back as I can remember after I was diaagnosed with CMT, I felt numbness in my feet - after being on them for any length of time. Then in college, I had numbness in my arms. I say " had " because I don't have it anymore, except if I am on my feet too much.Once I sit down and do something sedentary, the numbness dissappears. With my arms, I would hold them up above my head, and the numbness would go away. My CMT symptoms come and go - always have.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2004 Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 Not sure if it's normal or not Jerry, but I am almost 2 months postop and I still am completely numb in the lower lip too, so it must be somewhat common! I asked my os about it and he said it could take months for the numbness to resolve. Tingles are good, means the feeling is coming back.
