[quote=Anonymous]Dr. Latimer is pretty much it for this area. Have you tried calling and reporting the no improvement? It is possible the strain of strep your child has is resistant to amoxicillin. Some children do have immune problems that complicate the picture. Dr. Latimer is a neurologist, not an immunologist though she does give IVIG. Unless you have information I do not have (haven't been active in things PANDAS for a while), Hopkins is the last place you would go for PANDAS help. They have a very senior pediatric neurologist there who was the driving force in making PANDAS controversial. He is a Tourette's expert, who has not taken kindly to PANDAS although he does not go so far as to say it does not exist. I have heard of kids going to the immunology department at Hopkins and being referred to him. There are doctors further afield. Duke is said to have a good department. There is also Dr. Rosario Trifiletti in New Jersey. [/quote]
