Understanding & Treating PANS/PANDAS in Autistic Children
Description
In this episode, Holly Blanc Moses chats with Dr. Roseanne Kapana Hodge about some Pediatric Acute-onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome (PANS) and Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorder Associated w/ Streptococcal Infections (PANDAS) and how these sudden-onset (and slower-onset) disorders can drastically impact mental health and behavior. They dive into the challenges of diagnosing these conditions, especially when it comes to tick-borne illnesses like Lyme disease, and stress how important it is to spread awareness and push for better diagnosis and treatment options.
