MS/Blood-Iron/Herpes & Oldztimer's:
INTERESTING: The reference of Dr. Zamboni to MS as 'Vasular' is intriguing. ALSO: The article observed that with MS the blood-born immune cells "Cross the blood-brain barrier & attack the myelin nerve sheathing." KEY HERE MAYBE: Back to the original 'auto-immune' MS alleged cause with may be indicative is that the Herpes-Simplex-I/shingles virus tends to persist throughout life BECAUSE it hangs out in CEREBRAL SPINAL FLUID. When periodically Herpes-Simplex-I/Herpes-Zoster recurrs in regular 'vascularly blood-supplied tissues' the immune system overcomes the 'outbreak' but the vasular based-immune system DOES NOT DEAL EFFICIENTLY with viral-organisms that 'hide-out' in the cerebral spinal fluid. MAYBE they are both 'right' &/or on the right track jointly. Maybe somehow when the blood born T-Cells etc. manage to breach the menigal blood-brain barrier some hemaglobin cells are damaged/destroyed in the process and lead to an excessive 'free-iron radical' heavy-metal build up in the blood-serum that leads to the 'blood-vessal' damage which further exacerbates the T-Cell destruction to myelin nerve sheathing. CONCLUSION: The overall MS symptomology may very well do the double-cause debilitating effect. And since they are 'both' causing a 'duel' set of symptoms from this PIGGY-BACK DOUBLE-INDIRECT effect; heretofore trying to ISOLATE A SINGLE CAUSE has been throwing off the research all along. Or maybe I've been watching too many 'House' episodes~;-) Biology/Microbiology/Organic Chemistry/Cellular Biology was my first BS-Major though theoretical-physics is my passion since early childhood.
