My introduction

[Guest guest]

Hi, I am new. New to the Group but not new to CMT. I

was diagnosed

5 years ago after finding my biological mother (I'm

adopted). It was

nice to finally figure out why I suffered with the

problems that I

have suffered with all of my life, like trouble

writing with a pen,

or forget ever finishing the Presidential Fitness

Award.

Lately I have had some trouble I am wondering if

anyone has ever experienced.

Last year I had heart failure after I gave birth to my

daughter.

Several months later I kept having chest pains, now a

year and 1/2

later I am still suffering with chest pains and rib

pain. Weakness

and difficulty with stairs and lifting things (i.e.

little girl).

I had some blood tests that indicated myositis, but

after an EMG and

a muscle biopsy, my neuro said no, even though I

continue to have an

enzyme in my blood that is elevated. He has now

basically dumped me

because I " don't have anything " .

Any suggestions? I wonder if the CMT could mask other diseases??Juli
