Guest guest Posted March 3, 2000 Report Share Posted March 3, 2000 Hi Barbara, Oh yes! I had tons of other diagnoses! Everything from polio (even tho I WAS innoculated) to MS, MD, and Frederich's Ataxia. The last one I was diagnosed with at about age 26 or 27 and I didn't know much about it. It is also one affecting peripherial nerves, although affects differently than CMT. So I had tons of tests, bla bla, etc. and then the doc (at UCLA) said " you DO have Frederich's Ataxia " and you will be in a wheelchair by the time you are 30! Well, I kind of freaked out with that, left, and never saw another neurologist until I was 35, who then thought I had 's disease. Long story short, my original disease of CMT was then given back to me about 2 years later. Gretchen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
