Yeah, myelination or lack of it is supposed to be a cause of MS (as you can see from Linkadge's links) and I thought I read it was linked to CFS too. There are some new meds in the works for MS that work on myelination, so maybe in a few years those will be available to us to try.
I think I've mentioned this several times, but I really think it should be standard procedure that anyone being considered for a mental illness dx should be very thoroughly checked for every other possible physical cause first, especially their thyroid.
