[quote=Anonymous]not sure if this is helpful, but I am an adult with OCD, and my symptoms always flare up with a cold or other sickness. I don't have PANDAS, but it's a real thing and kids do get it. On most days, I function very well, but then I'll get sick and remember I'm only one cold away from being symptomatic again :) I have to stay home and rest when I have a cold. If I try to keep on as normal, the mental health issues get worse even though the physical symptoms are minor. If I concentrate solely on recovering from the cold, sleep a lot, etc., in a few days I am back to normal physically and mentally. That is one thing I find others don't understand -- a cold usually isn't a big deal, but it is for me.[/quote]
