There actually is a cure. it's called the carnivore diet. If you put anyone with rett syndrome on a strict, all beef and eggs only (grass fed and finished) diet, over the course of 3 to 5 years, they'll be completely cured of this neurological disease/ condition and this also applies to prevention to which is why you start your kinds on animal based diet.
I have been diagnosed with CMT since my early childhood, and now i am 24, facing difficulty while taking stairs, foot drop, and weakness in the hands, but still i manage to live with it. I am an ACCA finalist, and now just three papers are remaining to become a fully qualified accountant. Furthermore, i am also a bike enthusiast who successfully managed to drive a 150cc bike and, for the past two years, also had gone on the mountains side bike tour, approximately 1000 km long distance covered. Never lose hope. Believe in yourself.

Does anyone have symptoms of autonomic neuropathy with CMT? I have a normal heart with arrhythmia. I've just read a research paper about autonomic neuropathy in CMT and that it can be a cause of irregular heartbeats. I also have PEM, Post Exertion Malaise which is a sign of chronic fatigue syndrome. I thought that's what I had on the side but now I've just read that PEM can also be related to CMT. This is by far my worst symptom. I'm only mildly afflicted compared to others I have read about. I have high arched feet and hammer toes. My arms are not particularly weak and I don't have problems with my hands. My legs are weak, but I can walk well. I just basically don't feel very good. I'm 71 and was misdiagnosed with CIDP back in 2001. I have only just been correctly diagnosed with CMT.

During a check of my enlarged prostate gland in 2019, my doctor noticed some unusual changes in the skin just inside my anus. He said that it bore watching... Then came Covid and routine medical care was set aside as clinics and hospitals were swamped with patients. Everything was Covid! Hand washing, social distancing,masks. My strange cells were forgotten. Time passed. Then, again during a check of my prostate, a different doctor felt a definite growth and ordered a biopsy. It came back positive for stage one anal cancer caused by HPV exposure. Stage one means that the cancer had not spread from its original place. Prospects for cure looked good. I underwent six weeks of radiation treatment. The first week included chemo. And the last week also included chemo. I began feeling the side effects of treatment around the fourth week. Fatigue, burning pain while passing urine and feces (shit). No nausea. No vomiting. But disorientation and weakness caused by dehydration. We concentrated on symptom relief. Lidocaine cream. Stool softeners. Diarrhea meds. Constipation meds. General pain meds. I finished treatment two weeks ago. Symptoms can even get worse once treatment is over. It can take up to a month for things to get back to something like normal. In about a month or so, I will be checked to see if the cancer is gone. And checked again at regular intervals. If the cancer ever returns, I will NOT go through chemo radiation again. I’m 78. Time to go. I’ll see what options I have for ending my life...as is my RIGHT!

Hi. I am almost 50 years old and have spent most of my life desperately trying to figure out what is going on in our family. There is most definitely a genetic component and perhaps not to the severity of some of the cases I have seen online. But I believe it would be worth further investigating if you would be interested.
@@Wtvrflotesurgoat perhaps not specifically this I'm not a doctor but some of the symptoms led me to this. Shortly after I made this comment they found a suspicion of fibrous dysplasia on my MRI so hopefully we are getting closer to answers 🤞
