Thanks Scott,

Some great info. and suggestions!
The friend apparently will refuse to continue Haldol because it makes him feel anxious. Suggestions?

Sorry about your health issues. Interested in the inflammatory/immune system component of BP. What do you know about that? You might be interested in the just released results of the Phase 2 study of aspirin/minocycline for BP, as you have responded to minocycline (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29362444). Also note that there is a form of curcumin that is able to cross the BBB and tampen inflammation in a different manner than aspirin and likely minocycline. Let me know if your interested in looking into that.
But really, ideally, it helps to investigate which components of the immune system might be contributing or mitigating your condition, and, if possible, why. For example, this study is provocative and promising (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28025071) as T cell components are relatively easy to manipulate in some aspects without medication required (e.g. changing the components and relative abundance of the gut microbiome). You might consider not only getting the blood test that gives you your white blood count profile but go further and get a t-cell breakdown (e.g. t-regs, th17).
Also know that my email address has not changed, so you can reach that way also.
