Question: What testing have you had for neuropathy?

My daughters and I underwent EMGS, Needle EMGs and genetic testing (whole Exome Sequencing) at Weill Cornell Hospital because we have a family history of CMT. The diagnosis of the EMGs indicated I have Chronic and Severe Sensorimotor Axonal Polyneuropathy. My daughters tested negative for that disorder. The genetic tests indicated I have the gene mutations linked to CMT2 and CMT4B. My oldest daughter tested positive for CMT2. My youngest daughter tested positive for CMT2, and CMT4B. My oldest daughter started her symptoms at age 45. My youngest daughter has not yet experienced any symptoms but it’s only a matter of time.

Do you know if health insurance covers the costs of genetic testing for this type of thing?
