Seems to me that someone posted awhile back about having sleep apnea and BEB ... or did I read that on the Dystonia BB? It might take some time before that person notices your new posting. Wish I could help.

My sister is going to a sleep clinic because she may have sleep apnea. She had polio when she was about twelve or thirteen, and she's sixty now. She's had to have hip replacement surgery on both hips. She doesn't have BEB, but her head shakes quite badly.

Yvon - I have sleep anea, never had polio, but I remember so well the summer afternoons in the '40's when my mother made my sister and me "rest" while the epidemic was local. One of her friends, a young mother, died from it. I was so thankful that the vaccine came out when I had children of my own! Mary

No to sleep apnea and post-polio.
