Just got some new info on my dad.  It seems that at the time of his
birth, the doctor was convinced that he would be stillborn and so
extracted him from his mother with the use of some instrument which
left a hole in his head and which took almost a year to fully heal,
according to my grandmother.  And as if that isn't bad enough, he
also had polio when he was quite young which was suspected for years
as the cause of his muscle/nerve problems, i.e. poor balance, lack
of feeling in his legs.
 
Are there any others who have either experienced head injury and/or
had polio who now also have PD?  Does anyone know of a correlation
between polio and PD?  Thanks.
