      7 major types each has subtypes. The only true way to know is a chromosome test. Mine is 1A and had a neurologist order the test. Ancestry DNA will not look for it. I have not tried 23andMe

      Do you know which chromosome your CMT is in? You can usually tell the kind of CMT you have by how it’s been passed along in your family.
