Re: Sensation Loss In Feet

[Guest guest]

I don't know if it is a CMT thing or not, but about a year & a half ago my two

biggest toes on foot went " numb " to the point where it feels i am wearing a toe

ring about 6 sizes too small. The pressure is tremendous & the pain varies hour

to hour. I get what I call electrical surges in them that last for just a

couple seconds that seems to trickle or filter away out thru the toes.

I have been struggling for 4 years with a bad back - herniated discs,

degenerative disc disease, and radiculopathy, as well as a positive emg for CMT.

My pain mgmt doc has been trying to & is trying to " fix the pinched nerve that

he thinks is causing the foot problem.

I go in this Friday for a selective nerve root block on S1 level. So who

really knows if mine is CMT related or pinched nerve related. I am interested

in reading others' thoughts as well. Hang in there.

I believe that there hasn't been enough time for the healing process and the

feeling will come back.

My toes are sooo sensitive.
