An Update to Charcot-Marie-Tooth, COVID-19, and Frustrations

Disclaimer: I am NOT affiliated with Bemergroup. I receive no payment should you purchase their product. I purchased a product for personal use so I am sharing my experiences as a Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) patient. My experiences are not guaranteed to be yours.

A few months a month ago, I wrote a post about my frustrations with Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) and COVID-19. You read can the post here. I want to share with you an update.

The effects of CMT began showing their ugly annoyances during late October 2020 as I had no Deep Water Aerobics classes, my Service Dog had passed away, and I had no other exercises. Bicycling had to end when the weather got cold. It seemed I was losing more ground on feeling good. However, my faith in God reminded me there is always hope.

After my Service Dog passed away, I began to realize that he had been doing quite a few things to help me. Something about dogs! Not only did he keep me moving, but, he managed to stave off many of the neurological issues associated with my type of CMT. Also, he helped my introverted-nerd personality become a little more extroverted. Fortunately, I was able to adopt another dog who is learning to be a companion. I am looking forward to seeing what she does to help me with CMT.

Since my last post about being introduced to the Bemer Group products, I bought the product and have been strictly following a daily routine as instructed by my Massage Therapist. Before I did this, I went through a few months of testing the product and learning the results, and going over them with her. Successful results led to having the therapy daily.

As you probably know already, CMT causes quite a bit of discomfort in many ways. I lived in shorts and T-shirts most of the fall-winter season as I could not be comfortable in other clothing. For me, that’s unusual because of the cold. Thankfully, the treatment with Bemer Group has helped me with relief from the discomfort.

The best part of the Bemer daily routine is I can do it at home from the comforts of my own bed. It’s the first thing I do every morning and at the end of the day. My routine takes 16 minutes with both sessions. The short bit of time has given me quite a bit of energy as I have never had before.

For me, I have noticed that the arthritic pain in my hands has gone away. The winter of 2020-2021 was the first one in which I did not have to take pain medications to ease the arthritis pain. Also, I have noticed an awesome increase in energy level which has caused renewed interest in many aspects of my life.

Now, I just need to find an exercise routine to make up for not taking the Deep Water Aerobics classes.
