WtP -“Health, yes.”
OK, That’s what I thought. This isn’t a freebie anymore – find me a Shidduch.
You are a hypochondriac. It does’t matter if it’s PANDAS or not!
Btw, I feel bad for DrMamaBear, but you aren’t HER!
From above -“initial first-line agent (oral penicillin, benzathine penicillin, or a first-generation cephalosporin) is reasonable. When multiple recurrences are believed to be due to GABHS infection, clindamycin or amoxicillin/clavulanic acid is indicated. [1]”
In practice, the majority of children with recent-onset PANDAS experience a reduction in neuropsychiatric symptoms within days or weeks after antimicrobial treatment active against acute GAS infection”
Azithromycin is NOT recommended!
Also, all family members should be tested to see if they are carriers.
