Guest guest Posted December 13, 2000 Report Share Posted December 13, 2000 A while back I read something about hyperthyroidism having the same symptoms as CMT...or am I misremembering again?? I have been diagnosed with CMT and when I went to see my new Dr. she wanted to test me for that..just to be sure. Did everybody else's Dr. check for this? Thanks Liz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
