Hi Tom. By CMT, do you mean Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease? If so, you might look at Dr. Shoemaker’s work. He says he has treated this illness on his website http://www.chronicneurotoxins.com/. The homepage says “We have also successfully treated people with the rare genetic disorder called Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. This is a condition in which toxins are produced within the body, causing chronic illness.” I would encourage you to contact his office to find out more about their treatment.
I did a little looking around online and found that some drugs can cause or exacerbate this condition. Here is a list of medications to avoid: http://www.charcot-marie-tooth.org/med_alert.php.
I also found a treatment used by Edward Cayce. Here are links that might be helpful:

Hello…I’ve been very ill for more than 30 years. We just went to the Cleveland Clinic in May and still no one has the answers. I’ve felt all along that my health issues are viral based. The looks of unbelief on doctors faces are getting very frustrating. Please help me….thank you, Shannon Veurink
