Polio Support Group

Have read the article only by scanning. Going to give it to mother to read, but tell me more Please

How do I get Doctors to listen to me when I tell them how I feel and the symptons I am having....It is like they look at me and I just went completely over their heads. They said all my test results are normal ....I shake all the time in my hands I am tired all the time and have left side numbness and tingling in arm and leg,,,,Help!!!

I forgot to say that I had polio when I was 3 yrs old so how do they test for PPS? I've all the test I can take.

the paper describes the overall 'life as a polio survivor'. My primary doctor is awesome and very understanding of my ailments from PPS. He recently recommended I increase my Vitamin D intake to 1000 units, added Calcium, lower sodium to less than 2000 mg, and start Vit B12 daily. I've included Flaxseed oil capsules which help along with regular green tea, acai to help clear out toxins. My joint pains have lessened. I started swimming 2 - 3 times a week which has been a tremendous help to keep me walking. i was feeling stronger but in the process overstressed the foot tendon (peroneal brevis and longis tear). Recently had surgery and now am experiencing critical nerve damage pain. It has been 3 months since my surgery and I have lost feeling in my upper right foot. yuk, i should not have had the surgery. i cannot swim, nor walk because of the pain from surgery. am still trying to meditate, and do stretch exercises which keeps the muscles strenghtened. it's a process to learn to live with PPS. i look forward to finding out what more can be done to treat the pain and inflamation
