Three Types of Polio

Hi, I am new to this site and forum. I am 64 years old and had Polio in 1954.Quite an experience. I almost died. Iron Lung, the whole bit. Wheel chair for 3 years, braces on both legs, and soooo many surgical proceedres I have lost count. Yet, I feel blessed to walk today with an adaptive brace on my left leg. PPS has started to set in and my Physician doesn't know much about this. Paralysis is settling into my Left Lung. Does anyone know of books, or a Dr. who specializes in PPS?

Also, I have been looking for the names of the three types of Polio and am unable to find this information. The only one I remember is the Bolbaric. I would like to obtain and names and definitions of ALL three types if possible.
Hopefully, someone on this Forum will be able to direct me with me search.
Thank you.

Re: Three Types of Polio

Hi first of it is very sad to heard about your problem. Polio is really very bad problem as it ruin whole life. If you would serach in google you would get good information about the type of polio. First of all there are 4 kinds of polio exist that classfication is done on types of virus. There are around 4 types of polio like Paralytic polio, Spinal polio, Bulbar polio and Bulbospinal polio.
