Unfortunately, most physicians (and even many polio survivors) do not "believe" that PPS are real or know that they are very treatable!

by David Graham, revised by Elinor Young
Have you tried to explain post-polio syndrome to a friend, then half way through you notice them nodding off? Try this two minute drill.
Our brain communicates with our muscles through the nerves. Polio destroys these nerve cells causing our muscles to die.
The beautiful thing about nerves is that they help each other. When one goes down others help out, so a person can lose many nerve cells and not experience much dysfunction.
Most polio survivors have been living in this state of fewer cells for years. If they were very young when they contracted polio they may have grown up thinking this was normal.
All people's nerve cells die off with age. For the normal person, having many nerve cells, this is not a problem. For those of us that have been living with a reduced number of nerve cells, this can result in a variety of symptoms including weakness, fatigue and pain.

30. Lincolnshire Post-Polio Library [Dr. Henry Writes Bulbar And Spinal Polio]
From the Lincolnshire postpolio library, an article from Dr Henry about bulbar polio involving the brain stem, where the centers for the cranial nerves are located.
http://www.zynet.co.uk/ott/polio/lincolnshire/library/drhenry/bulbar.html
Dr. Henry writes about Bulbar and spinal polio
Spinal polio involved damage to the anterior horn cells which run up and down the spinal cord. These cells control motor function only. Sensory cells in the spinal cord were spared, thus we all feel pain and touch. Paraplegics and quadraplegics do not have motor or sensory function below the level of their injury. Spinal polio could damage the muscles of breathing in the chest wall and thus spinal polio victims could also need the assistance of a ventilator or iron lung. Many people had both, spinal and bulbar combined. Actually, many victims that had bulbar alone and had good recoveries had good muscular function because their spinal cord was not involved. With PPS, many of these people are having swallowing and central fatigue problems or problems with any functions related to the cranial nerves (double vision for example). I hope I am explaining this adequately. Statistically, most of us had spinal polio, and most that had bulbar had it combined with spinal. But now we seem to be learning that many of us had brain involvement during the acute infection that did not do any recognizeable damage then, but may be giving us problems now with the total body fatigue or central fatigue of PPS. People who had only the GI form of polio which we had initially when we became ill (flu like) had the non-paralytic type of polio. The mystery now is whether these people may have had silent CNS involvement and are subject to PPS.

What is Post-Polio Syndrome(PPS)?

Post-Polio Syndrome (PPS) is a neurological disorder that affects up to 60 per cent of the estimated 650,000 individuals who recovered from paralytic polio 40 or more years ago. It is believed by many researchers to be caused by the gradual loss of nerve cells damaged by the polio virus after decades of overuse. In New Jersey, there are an estimated 30,000 polio survivors.
What Are the Most Common Symptoms of PPS?
* Fatigue, often overwhelming
* New muscle weakness
* Pain, especially in muscles and joints
* Breathing and swallowing difficulties
* Cold intolerance
* Sleep disturbance
(Read more on our News page) What Is the New Jersey Polio Network? The New Jersey Polio Network (NJPN) and its local chapters make up an organization for concerned polio survivors, family members, and friends as well as health care professionals. NJPN is a non-profit New Jersey organization governed by a board of directors composed of polio survivors.

Key words: Postpoliomyelitis syndrome; Neuromuscular junction; Single fiber electromyography; Fatigue; Anticholinesterase; Electromyography Summary Disabling generalized fatigue and muscle fatiguability are common features of post-poliomyelitis syndrome (PPS). In 17 fatigued PPS patients, we measured jitter on stimulation single-fiber electromyography (S-SFEMG) for at least 3.5 min before and after i.v. injection of 10 mg edrophonium. We observed reduction in jitter (defined as a significant difference in jitter means before and after edrophonium, unpaired t -test P P P P = 0.03). In addition, the 9 pyridostigmine responders experienced a significant reduction in jitter means pre- and post-edrophonium (100% vs. 88%, Bonferroni corrected
