r/CharcotMarieTooth

I am a 23 year old male me and my dad have it but his was worse than mine his feet were really bad and he had alot of issues with pain he used alot of drugs to try and help it but it turned him into a drug addict for a while he then seen one of the best doctors in America maybe even the world who deals with CMT and im not sure on the exact process but he broke every bone in my dads feet to reform them to be better and he has noticed a big difference in his life as for me I just got done working 18 hour shifts for 5 years in a factory the pain for me is only really bad in my left foot I dont take any medication besides smoking marijuana and for me it helps alot and is natural at times when I have pain I smoke and it literally feels like I have no shoes on when im wearing 5 pound steel toe shoes it sucks no one can help us but I found that THC has helped me and my dad alot God Bless Everyone

I was replying to a post on here and just thought id make my response into a post hopefully it helps somebody any other tips would be appreciated

Lidocaine also helps a little amount
