Best Answer

yes Franklin D. Roosevelt did have polio

___________________________________

probably not

Considering the age of onset of Mr. Roosevelt's paralysis as well as the pattern of its onset, starting at the feet and working its way up the legs, most modern physicians believe it is far more likely that the late President suffered from Guillain-Barré syndrome.
