Hi,
I am 63 and had poliomylitis since 1954. I have had postpolio since 2003. I've been doing fine until I had breast cancer and started chemo in Jan and finished in March of this year. My left leg was affected. I feel my muscles are weakening. I have been doing a lot of walking, with a cane, but I seem to be getting weaker. I can't get up from the floor like I could just a few months ago. My right one feels like it's going to give out. This is getting worse.
Can you tell me if my muscle strength will come back to my good leg?
