Charcot-Marie-Tooth Alerts from Google |
|
We created Google Alerts for “Charcot-Marie-Tooth” (with and without hyphens) and “CMT,” as well as for “neuropathy” and “peripheral neuropathy,” and Google automatically sends us an email whenever there are new results for one of these search terms in the news or on the web.
We’ll post the relevant results here (including those pertaining to diabetic or other neuropathies when the topics concern foot care, footwear, or other matters of interest to people with CMT), but you can create your own alerts and have them sent directly to you. Simply click on the Google Alerts logo, enter your search term, the type of results you’d like, how often you’d like Google to check for results, and your email address. When you’re done, click the “Create Alert” button, and Google will send you a confirmation email with a link to activate your Alert.
