Guest guest Posted March 16, 2006 Report Posted March 16, 2006 Welcome Fabian, I'm please so hear your surgeries have helped you so far. Thanks so much for introducing yourself to us. The 'shaking' you encounter sounds like what we call " tremors " - some with CMT have them, others don't. I have them myself and a medication controls them. As for your walk, many with CMT walk differently. You might want to look into custom made in-shoe orthotics (I have these) or AFOs (Ankle Foot Orthotics. Both can help your walk. A certified orthotist can completely evaluate you, measure your legs, leg to hip, hip to toes, etc, and offer you solutions. Since you have CMT 1A, you may be interested in the Vitamin C Research in our Files, and what other members have reported from taking C. is both a helpful and hopeful place. Again, welcome. ~ Gretchen/Founder and Moderator, Quote
