 In Stage 4, the combination of Benicar and 1,25-D is entirely successful at displacing bacterial proteins such as Capnine. Patients would be able to slow their immune response by withdrawing Benicar. Choosing to do so, however, would reduce its anti-inflammatory, palliative effect, and depending on the load of stressors (exposure to pathogenic microbes, other environmental stressors, psychological stress, sleep deprivation etc) it is possible that microbes again may get a stronghold in the body. At this point, patients taking antibiotics will want to discontinue them, or at least adjust dosing so as to maintain tolerable immunopathology. Rather than a [[home:mp:progress#my_disease_is_getting_worse|sign of failure]], this is just a sign that the immune system is becoming healthy. In Stage 4, the combination of Benicar and 1,25-D is entirely successful at displacing bacterial proteins such as Capnine.

 In Stage Five, the immune system becomes self-sustaining, and is fully able to combat chronic pathogens without antibiotics and even without Benicar. Benicar continues to be used, however, for its previously mentioned anti-inflammatory effect. At this point, vitamin D from ingestion or light exposure may be converted into 1,25-D, which now can drive the immune response since the vitamin D receptors are no longer blocked by bacterial ligands. For this reason, MP patients must be careful about exposing themselves to large amounts of light or sunshine. In Stage Five, the immune system becomes self-sustaining, and is fully able to combat chronic pathogens without antibiotics and even without Benicar.

 Stage 6 is like Stage 1, because the immune response is fully functional. Patients can wean or discontinue Benicar and even take in a reasonable amount of light.  Stage 6 is like Stage 1, because the immune response is fully functional.
