-{{DiscussAllan | do we not have ICD10 dx for ''Poliomyelitis, Chronic'', as i am not sure how to map old code [[Quadriplegia-post polio]] to IDC10 one}}
-We do have [[Paraplegia or quadraplegia/tetraplegia]] but that loses the post-polio part. We have [[Postpolio syndrome]], but I think that's something different.
