[quote=Anonymous]OP here.  He has always been an active kid, and I would say that he definitely has some mild symptoms of Aspergers.  He interacts well with others, but I notice that he plays a lot with his fingers and his conversations can be a little one-sided.  At home he is fine, but when we go into public places when he is sick, he is totally different person.  He fidgets and touches everything compulsively, and he has no sense of personal space boundaries.  When he isn't sick (which is hardly ever in the winter), he is a pretty typical kid.  For the past three years I have noticed that he is very calm from May-September.  I don't know much about PANDAS, but I'm not sure I can pinpoint an exact instance when a switch just flipped.  He's always been a different kind of kid.  Illness just seems to exacerbate the symptoms.  He's had a cold for the past week and he has been extremely quirky.  Both his teacher and I noticed a difference in behavior---which is why I had to ask if this was pretty common.  Thank you for all on your feedback and suggestions![/quote]
