The brain is part of the body. Mental health and physical health are two sides of the same coin and must be treated together. If you or your child’s symptoms aren’t improving with treatment, find providers who will get curious, believe what you are telling them, and collaborate with other disciplines to get answers and treatment. We are curious, we listen and we collaborate. Learn more about pans/pandas here: https://www.pandasppn.org/awareness

With PANS/PANDAS Awareness Day tomorrow, we wonder how many more children and adults might have PANS/PANDAS and just not been lucky enough to be diagnosed yet. We've made great strides in educating clinicians, advancing research, and publishing on PANS/PANDAS (two special issues - peer reviewed and organized by Neuroimmune Foundation with your help), and the parent and family community remains a very important driver in the recognition of these conditions. Families helping other families is critical to awareness and we appreciate each of you who continue to help others on this journey.

This Friday is PANS/PANDAS Awareness day.

So every day we will share information and resources for you and your family.

These disorders usually affect children and teens but symptoms can linger into adulthood and are OFTEN misdiagnosed as psychological disorders rather than the infection-caused neuro immune conditions they are.

This matters because the treatment required is very different. We don’t want anyone misdiagnosed and fail to get necessary treatment.
