CMTUK (the UK's only charity dedicated to supporting people affected by Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease) hosts their Annual Conference on May 6th/7th, which will be well attended by people living with CMT in the UK, as well as medical professionals and students interested in finding out more about CMT.
People living with CMT get help from physiotherapists and aquatic therapists, as CMT can cause the muscles in the legs and feet to weaken, which causes difficulty with walking and balance.
People with CMT can develop foot drop and eventually it may result in deformities of the feet. CMT can also cause weakness in the arms and hands, resulting in the loss of dexterity and the ability to do everyday tasks.
