I have Neuropathy, and charcot-marie-t. disease is there any thing I can do to stop it from getting worse?

Question:

Answers:
CMT is a fairly rare neuromuscular disease, and I have a family member with a similar disease. I do not want to give you any medical advice, but I do want to give you some general advice that our family has learned over the years:
1. Get the best medical care you can--a good neurologist and physical therapist, a good general physician that you trust.
2. Take the very best care of yourself--watch your diet, get plenty of rest, do all the good things you can for yourself.
3. Get support--you can find groups on the internet to stay in touch with. You will find that many people do not know what this disease is all about, so you want to find other people to talk to who do know what you are going through.
4. Consider supportive regimes such as massage, hypnosis, spiritualtiy, anything that gives you that extra bit of energy you need to cope.
5. If you want to research to see any new treatments or experimental trials, you can use the PubMed website at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?DB=pubmed

Good luck to you!
