Hello everyone! I'm 64 and have had polio in 1956. A very bad form. Only my head was ok. In time I recovered pretty well. In my late ten years I started to degenerate, feeling more and more weak and many other symthoms and recently I was told I have PPS. I want to know as much possible about.. If anybody reading my post has more details I'll appreciate.?

    No, not yet. You see, I'm Romanian married to an English man. Most of the time we live in Romania. I've just find this site. Bit by bit I'll be in touch with everything. Thank you.?
