Hi Becky. Thank you for your positive reply! Although my CMT symptoms have been there mildly my whole life, when a friend said you walk funny in my 60’s, I went to Stanford and had the nerve conduction test which confirmed CMT 2 in 2014. There is nothing they can do as it just gets progressively worse. I found braces made by CMT’er in Canada that helps me walk. I found a toe support fit my hammertoe. I’ve stopped dancing and hiking. I bike 3 days a week 60-75 miles and do weight lifting. My insomnia is managed by limiting coffee, activity in the evening, quiet/dark room, hot bath and eating carbs before bed. I struggle currently with fatigue/mood coping skills. I walk slowly which has reduced my falls. I take care lifting but find I’m breaking kitchen dishes more frequently. I will keep everyone updated about the hydroxychloraquine. My swollen salivary gland became very enlarged last August after bicycling in a dusty road along a marsh. I applied hot compresses 20 minutes each day morning and again at night and consumed 10-12 8 oz glasses of water for 6 months, massaged the area and sucked on lemons and it has gone down but it’s still there. Then I was referred to a rheumatologist and started the hydroxychoriquin. My hypothyroidism blood work is normal on 44 mg of medicine starts with l. My WBC counts are low….
