MICHIGAN POLIO NETWORK, INC

After years of stability, many of us are finding ourselves faced suddenly and

unexpectedly with new medical problems, now being referred to as "the late

effects of polio".

Symptoms include but are not limited to: extreme fatigue, new weakness in

both affected and unaffected muscles and joints, sensitivity to cold and in

some casesrespiratory problems.

We are learning new things constantly but at this time have no absolute

answers as to the causes of post-polio syndrome.

The Michigan Polio Network, Inc. working with health care professionals, is

finding some answers for polio survivors in our quest for coping with a myriad

of problems.

Our primary purpose is to assist polio survivors in a way which will maintain

or improve their quality of life.
