[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would get another opinion before going to an "expert" on PANDAs.[/quote] Why? If you had a very specific type of cancer or neurological disorder you would seek out that specialist wouldn't you? A parent who is concerned about possible PANDAS/PANS SHOULD seek out an expert in order to RULE IT OUT! The 2-3 national experts are professionals (trained at Georgetown, Johns Hopkins, Columbia, etc...). None of them are going to falsely identify a patient as having a disorder if they don't have it. Jeez DCUM. PANDAS/PANS is diagnosed by multiple data points including at a minimum blood serum results and observable symptoms. A motor tic could be Tourettes, it could be PANDAS. A specialist will help figure it out.[/quote]
