    Hello Chris @ChrisAllwood11 and a warm welcome to the community. Very glad to have you with us.
    CMT is Charcot -Marie-Tooth disease? Is that correct? And do I understand correctly that it is related to HNPP? I ask only that I might be better able to direct you to people and resources.
    And please don't hesitate to tell us anything about yourself or ask us any questions that may help us to be of use to you. We'd like to do anything we can to help you 'live life to the full' :smile:
    Warmest best wishes,
    Richard
