I don't know if he's still looking for people or not, or if he drew any conclusions. Some things are studied but the results are never published.

In it he responded to a question about CMTers with megacalves instead of the bone thin ones most folks have. Crabtree thought they would have an article about megacalves, but I haven't seen one. Dr. answered: " That is one of those variant forms of CMT I mentioned. I have not yet seen anyone with that but know they do exist. " You might contact him to ask if he's interested in knowing about yours. This is the latest addy I have for him. T. , MD 1808 Cooks Hill Road Centralia WA 98531 Have you measured them? I'd be interested to know how large they are, privately. Kat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 8, 2000 Report Share Posted September 8, 2000 Becky ... With the lack of balance suffered by most folks with CMT, if we ever had a softball game, we would have to play it laying down, just to play it safe. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 8, 2000 Report Share Posted September 8, 2000 Hi Kat, Have you any more information on this study on large calves? I`d be very interested as mine just seem to be getting bigger even tho` I`m fairly inactive now! As I`ve said before my doctors don`t understand it and have gone so far as to say I can`t have CMT because of my calves. Joyce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 11, 2000 Report Share Posted September 11, 2000 --- I too have large calves, and have always been a very fast walker. Everyone has always told me to slow down, and have trouble keeping up with me. Does anyone have alot of pain in the anterior (front) part of the lower leg? I seem to have alot of pain anteriorly just above my ankle, and it hurts when I flex and extend my foot.

It gets worse when I stand or do a lot of walking. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
