Hi all - my partner of 36 years has been diagnosed with this awful cancer and is luckily at TM2 - he has been advised to have chemo but has the added complication of having a genetic form of Charcot Marie Tooth disease .CMT can be very adversely affected by chemo - does anyone on here have any experience or info related to this - he is obviously very wary of having a treatment that may affect his mobility even more , especially given the post op risks in someone with less than optimal fitness - I spent the whole day crying down my face sometimes not even knowing it was happening until the tears fell off ...he's in denial ....
