PANDAS/PANS: Identifying Infectious Triggers

All healing journeys start with an accurate diagnosis.

With PANDAS/PANS, identifying initial and ongoing infectious triggers is essential to guide treatment.

• ASO and anti-DNAseB (Strep titers)

• Mycoplasma

• Lyme

• Other Tick-borne Illness

• EBV

• Bartonella

• Other organisms depending on medical history and response to standard treatments

As always, algorithms and protocols are starting points. Dr. Adame and her team meet patients and their families where they are in their journey, whether the child's symptoms started just weeks earlier or they have already received the entire PANDAS protocol including IVIG. She will adjust the diagnostic strategy depending on previous work up completed, history, and treatment goals.

Dr. Adame believes in shared decision-making with families.
