 ======Photosensitivity======
-Abnormal sensitivity to sunlight and bright lights is known as photosensitivity and sometimes referred to as "sun flare" or photophobia. In the context of the MP, the ultimate cause of photosensitivity is the Th1 inflammatory disease process –  [[home:mp:immunopathology#necessity_of_immunopathology|not the treatment itself]]. Exposure to natural or bright artificial light in a photosensitive person can lead to flares of internal disease activity, including exacerbation of any inflammatory disease symptoms.

Exposure to natural or bright artificial light in a photosensitive person can lead to flares of internal disease activity, including exacerbation of any inflammatory disease symptoms. Neurological phenomena also occur since the amygdala has nerves connecting it to a number of important brain centers, including the neocortex and visual cortex.
 Photosensitivity can occur either when the skin is exposed to bright natural light or the eyes are exposed to either natural or artificial light. Photosensitivity symptoms can occur immediately after exposure or begin 1 to 3 days later, sometimes persisting 5 days or more.

 ==== Resolution of photosensitivity ====
-As MP patients' vitamin D metabolism is "reset," their sensitivity to light diminishes. This will be a gradual process. Later on in the Protocol, MP patients should be able to handle "normal" amounts of sunlight because, in the short period between maintenance doses of antibiotics, they will maintain low bacteria loads.
