hi i am francesca and i am wondering if there is anyone out there that is like me. i had a diagnosis at 22 following the birth of my daughter. i had always been an athlete, studied ballet even but after my c-section, i noticed my legs had gotten thin, i could not wear high heels and sort of walked with a sort of limp. i had every test from blood tests to spinal taps, biopsy, everything and so many EMGs. the neurologists were puzzled by my symptoms. i can work out but i can't stand on my toes. throught he years i have done kick boxing, low impact aerobics, dancing etc. recently i have stumbled more and notice that my hands are getting thin but no real weakness. i have full bladder control, sexual response etc...and full sensory but they call it CMT. anyone like me out there?
