I also have post polio syndrome. I have severe constant back pain,when i walk or stand for to long I get sharp pains in my legs and spasms in my back. I got polio in about 1952. I did not start having PPS problems until about 10 years ago. The symptoms only lasted for about a year then they became very mild and I did not pay much attetion to them. But during this last year they have returned worse than before. I still have the same severe pains as before but more intense. I have trouble sleeping, I lost almost 45 lbs. in four months. I am currently on 3 antiinflamitory medications and 2 heavy duty narcotics for severe pain at the present. I have not been able to find more than one doctor that seems to know much about PPS and I am not sure about how much he really knows. Good Luck to You, Gary
