Because he had not experienced any symptoms until adulthood and was affected by facial paralysis early on in the course of his illness, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, whose death was originally attributed to complications arising from polio, may actually have suffered from symptoms related to Guillain-Barre syndrome.

(A)Because he had not experienced any symptoms until adulthood and was affected by facial paralysis early on in the course of his illness ---- The correct choice
(B)Since he has experienced his symptoms in adulthood and has been affected by facial paralysis early on in the course of his illness--- Roosevelt is no more. We cannot use present perfect tense
(C)Early on in the course of his illness he experienced facial paralysis and having not experienced any symptoms until adulthood—the problem may be with meaning. There is no causal connection between the lack of symptoms until adulthood and correlating this fact with the GBS symptoms, with a proper connector such as because.
(D)Because he had not experienced any symptoms until adulthood, he had been affected by facial paralysis early on in the course of his illness---This gives a wrong picture that because of lack of earlier symptoms, he experienced the later problems.
(E)Since he did not experience any symptoms until adulthood and had been affected by facial paralysis early on in the course of his illness --- as already explained.
(B)Since he has experienced his symptoms in adulthood and has been affected by facial paralysis early on in the course of his illness--- Roosevelt is no more. We cannot use present perfect tense
