CMT or
Charcot-Marie-Tooth is the most commonly inherited peripheral neuropathy. It
affects over 155,000 Americans (as many as MS). It is a disease of the
nerves that control the muscles. It is slowly progressive, causing loss of
normal function and or sensation in the lower legs/feet and arms/hands.
Symptoms include:
muscle wasting in the lower legs and feet leading to foot drop, poor balance,
and gait problems. Atrophy in the hands causes difficulty with manual
dexterity.
Structural foot
deformities such as high arches and hammer toes are common.
Poor tolerance
for cool or cold temperatures, and many people have chronically cold hands and
feet.
Additional
symptoms may include fatigue, sleep apnea, breathing difficulties, and hearing
loss.
