Guest guest Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 Regarding reflexes.As a child my doctor always had trouble making my legs jerk.But after a few tries they did. My reflexes naturally lessoned as I've gotten older BUT They're still there! Even in my elbows. This ALWAYS amazes me. Barb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 I have been lurking for about a week now; lurking because I'm not sure yet whether my family (2 sons and mother w/ symptoms) and I are affected by CMT. We do have some of the common symptoms of CMT; but I do have regular deep tendon reflexes. Have any of you had normal Deep Tendon Reflexes but still had the other symptoms? Or does this mean I mostly like do not have CMT? Thanks, Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 My relexes in my legs have been absent for years. I only recently discovered it was due to CMT. I have noticed that during sleep my legs will jerk. It is such a strong movement it will literally bring me up out of bed. I have woke my husband many times. Anyone else ever do this?
