I have CFS and Fibro to. I'm not sure if you've come across any info on this, but I did sometime back.

The correlation b/t polio and cfs.

I went to a support meeting for cfs a few years back when i was really bad.

I met the author of The Polio Paradox Understanding and Treating "Post-Polio Syndrome" and Chronic Fatigue by Richard L. Bruno ( he happens to have polio and works out of columbia Presbyterian Medical Center)

It's extremely interesting b/c at the time of polio ppl were told to exercise and combat it and push themsleves, but in actually in doing so they were burning out what neurons were left. Causing what's now being diagnosed as Post-polio. It shows how you should protect yourself and preserve so you don't burn yourself out. It also goes on to show how when there was a vaccine developed for polio there was possibly maybe a mutation I believe I forget now in what country, but also in california where all the doctors and nurses who were treating polio patients ..began to all feel symptoms of cfs.

I read the entire book in one evening...it's extremely interesting.

Also, 2 other books that were extremely helpful difrectly towards CFS and Fibro were:

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia and Other Illnesses The comprehensive Guide by Katrina Berne
