Clindamycin for mycoplasma

[vvny]

Hi All

 

I am back again with a question for the experts !

After rigorous testing done on my son for the past month for his tics , OCD and behavioral issues that keep flaring up from time to time...all the blood work comes back negative for any of the infections ! Only his cunningham panel shows elevation on one antibody.

Dr.T has changed the antibiotic from omnicef to clindamycin as my son cannot have any from the zithromax family due to serum sickness. Does anyone have any feedback on clindamycin for treating any possible mycoplasma or the long term use of it in PANS case ? I have read online that it can be harsh on the GI tract and my son is very sensitive so we are nervous to switch him from omnicef which has brought down his tics a bit but symptoms still persist !

Please share your thoughts !

 

Thanks in advance

Vik
