Are nuclear medicines dangerous for someone with CMT?
It would depend on which nuclear medicines were used. I know of no evidence that the nuclear medicines used in diagnostic tests affect CMT patients differently than others. Nuclear medicines and radiation treatments used against cancers are in a different category, but the drugs generally used in colonoscopy are light anesthetics. None of these drugs, such as midazolam (Versed), are on the list of agents with increased risk.
