can BP be animal contagion

I don't know whether this is a joke or truth but a group of researchers in Germany and the USA were able to find some correlation between a virus BDV a little distant to rabies can be contagious to humans causing them affective disorder. It's spread basically between horses.

What makes me more than puzzled is that i remember when aged 12 I used to ride horses and one day they brought me from school losing conscious completely and my mother screamed when she saw me she thought i died. When i woke up after 24 hrs we went to see a pediatrician who was witty enough and decided a virus from an animal. He asked us do we raise any pets at home we said no, until we told him that i ride horses, and a blood test showing virymia confirmed it.

Not in our country that we raise pets, because the no of BP in the west where everybody is raising a pet at home rose tremendously.

I could be crazy should i believe this , but here is the link

I phoned many private labs in cairo, they never hear about it. they do avian (bird) and swine only even the central governmental labs.

i got back to the web but couldn't track a location where they do it. I bet all of our readers here in the forum think i became nut. But if you read that horse flu on the web how it has implications to affective disorder. The thing in the western countries everybody raises a pet at home because they live alone and need a companion, which doesn't exist in egypt.

of course it may be far fetched but who knows. i remember when 1st diagnosed i asked my my pdoc whether i do thyroid analysis he said no need because i had racing thoughts so bp is sure. in the west they do the thyroid first, i believe this bloody bp is a kind of syndrome not a disease. it's like you have green eyes so more susceptible to wearing eyeglasses. so bp folks means more liable to mania.

what disappoints me is that i thought tianeptine/stablon could be a salvation for me until i developed mania, but this could be from seroxat also who can tell. saturday i had mania, tuesday finished and crashed to depression with a failing suicidal atrtempt then friday i am ok but a commencement of another mania, this is not rapid cycling.

i bet this bp is very simple to resolve because it looks physical but who cares to cure it because look how they make a good living out of it(psychiatrists, therapists, pharmacologists, psychiatric wards in hospitals) a whole industry and above all the pharm comp. so our bad luck is exploited by others very well

damn it
have a good day.
it seems i'll lose my job pretty soon. bad luck !!
