Guest guest Posted February 12, 1999 Report Share Posted February 12, 1999 Welcome Michele to the group. I'm sure you will make and interesting addition. Sounds like you have had frequent struggles in your life, and overcome many of them. You will find you are not the only frustrated writer in the group. RLS and fibromyalgia is a tough combination. The most important thing is to find a good physician who listens and cares. There are some things that can be done, and this group is a good place to find out more than you would ever care to know about what to try.

Everyone seems very supportive. >> Hello and welcome to the list !!! You will find we are a wonderfully supportive group. As far as the Atkin's diet is concerned, there is a 14 day induction period where you are eliminating carbs and carb-cravings. During the 14 days, you are allowed to eat til satisfied on most meat, eggs and cheese keeping your carb intake to 20 grams or less. You are supposed to eliminate all sugar and caffeine (I believe) though it is a YMMV (your miles may vary) thing. And most important you are supposed to drink 64oz of water plus 8oz for every 25 pounds you want to lose every day. We weigh every Monday and you are welcome to join in. You may also find it beneficial to measure as you may find that when you are not losing pounds, you are still losing inches. During that 2 week induction, it is not uncommon to lose 10 pounds or more. But, again, this is a YMMV. Penny has a wonderful site with a lot of good information in it.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2000 Report Share Posted January 18, 2000 Hi Ruth, Ruth Warren here. (Another Ruth ) I am now living in Raleigh, North Carolina. I am 41, was diagnosed at age 6 (back in the dark ages of the 60's, as Gretchen would say...) I wore leg braces at night during my childhood. (The braces were metal and leather - I was an original " heavy metal " child, hehe.) I wore nothing from mid-teens until this past year. Then my knees started to collapse under me without warning. I now wear AFOs and they are helping me tremendously. They give me the support I need and I feel confident that I can stay on my feet all day without falling. They aren't much of a fashion statement, but at this point I'll take function over form! If you are having trouble walking then orthotics are definitely something to consider. The type and form of othotic is extremely variable - what works well for one person can be awful for another. One thing about CMT - it treats all of us in a variety of different ways. Good luck in your search to find what's right for you. Keep asking us all questions and jump in with your opinions too!

I´ve read your messages and I must say; what a brave and wise teenager you are! I also deal with doctors who doesn´t try to undestand many CMT-problems (when I for example said to him for a couple of years ago that my hands felt weaker and was hurting he said: that kind of problems doesn´t belong to CMT). And I feel very confused , scared and frightend when meeting such a doctor (neuro.) and I am 40! It´s also good for me to read about your experienses in school as my sons also have CMT and CMTrelated problems in school. Many good lucks to you from Rose in Sweden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 1, 2000 Report Share Posted March 1, 2000 Hi Alisha Pleased to meet you. and you did'nt bore me at all. I think you have great courage for your age. I have a 16 year old daughter called Kristie. So far we don't think she has Cmt maybe you could write her. She knows a lot about CMT and has done a lot of study on it. I also have a 13 year old daughter, Amy and a 10 year old boy Matt who has just been dx with CMT type 2. He is not coping very well as he is a keen sportsman and is very good at sport. I also have a two year old daughter, Taylah she has'nt been tested as yet. I think it's great you have parents who are there for you. And I think it is a fantastic idea how you write them how you feel. I wish my daughter would do that . Espeacially at 16 it is a hard age. Take care and keep up that great courage.
