Guest guest Posted September 17, 2007 Report Posted September 17, 2007 Hi Emine, Yes, I seem to have CMT 2. I was diagnosed as a child when I was 10 years old. I am now 55. I don't use AFOs. I have custom orthotics in my shoes, to support my feet. And good shoes. Both are wonderful. Yes, there is more research starting to show now for CMT 2 and all the subtypes, so far all I have read is the genetics research. There is an excellent researcher nearby in Los Angeles working on mitochondria's impact on cells in CMT 2. I have just finished reading all the papers that were presented at the CMT Consortium this summer. As I read, I made some notes, and once I organize my notes, will try to post some insights. ~ Gretchen Quote
Guest guest Posted September 17, 2007 Report Posted September 17, 2007 Gretchen, I don't know how you do it. This newsletter is so wonderful. All the reading you do and digest for us is extraordinary. A mere 'thanks' seems so inadequate, but thanks. Elinor Quote
