I believe I answered you on your thread at PN.

I guess it depends on how long you had it before it was treated.

And if you are using nutrients that are known to help with remyelination.

Essential fatty acids, B12, folate, and B6 all work at that level.
If you have not been tested for the MTHFR mutations (1 in 10 has this), you will need methylfolate and methylcobalamin.
Some people genetically lack the ability to activate folic acid and B12.

So I don't think there is one answer that fits all.
