Suggest Treatment For Leg Weakness Due To Demyelination

I have a scar that was called demyelination due to me having limited strength in lifting my right leg. This was overcome with exercise. I had polio as a child in my back and neck that resulted in less flexibility. I have been turned down by seven insurance companies for life insurance due to the condition listed in my medical history. I am 71, have always had good health, good blood pressure that doctors would love to have. I walk two to four miles most days. How can I get this off my record? Glen Pruet
