Subject: PANDAS and autism

I think i have finally figured out why Daniel has screamed....

latent strep...... PANDAS

No, not the furry bear like creatures that exsist or the miriad of collectables i have but the pediatric autoimmune neuropsychiatric disorders associated with streptococcus

And the more i read the more i am convinced that many children harbor such strep or other related virus's and bacteria that cause autoimmune problems that might be responsible for some if not all of their autistic tendancies.... i intend to study this further.

I am going to try to convince his doctor to do a 48 hour strep test on agar (one way to dx it, the other is D8/D17 immunologic marker) , and might have an answer, that is if i havent already killed the strep that was in his body.

After following a pretty strict protocol i think the step is gone, the screaming is GONE , completely.

I urge parents of children who have ongoing or sudden behaviors, whose children have a DX or Autism, ADD, ADHD, Bipolar, OCD, anxiety, aberrant behavior, and resulting tantrums, compulsions and fixations, rituals, tic-like eye stims or movements, etc. to consider this very real CAUSE and problem ....and best of all its treatable!
According to various PANDAS websites, I found the documented research, and Dr. Hollander's abstract on "B Lymphocyte Antigen D8/17 and Repetitive Behaviors in Autism, from the American Journal of Psychiatry , Feb. 1999, that clearly indicated a propensity or susceptibility for PANDAS in Autistic children.

The emerging evidence is very clear, the so called psychiatric or mental illness problems can be biological....and treatable, even cured.
