Guest guest Posted October 3, 2006 Report Posted October 3, 2006 Sama, You asked if there is such a thing as drop hand. If you mean your wrist is no longer strong enough to lift your hand, then the answer is yes. I have it in both wrists and it is very aggravating. I figure ways to adapt as I do with everything else.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2006 Report Posted October 9, 2006 Sama, Before I was officially diagnosed with CMT, I woke up one morning 3 years ago, went to pick up a pack of matches, and had NO feeling in my right hand at all. I went to the ER thinking I had a stroke, the DR told me it was a nerve palsey and would go away in a couple of hrs or days, well, 6 months later...I finally got the feeling back. I was so scared and it took awhile, in the meantime my hand and wrist lost so much weight..I couldn't do anything for myself, cut my food, wash my hair. BUT, it did come back and I'm not only back to normal but also learned to become left handed!! Hang in there. in the Keys Quote
