fever, infection, tics, antibiotics

[Cristo]

When my son gets a low grade fever, gets run down from staying up late or from getting up too early for hockey practice, he gets run down, and then gets sick. As long as azithromycin is given right away...he doesn't spiral down the crazy tic path. He says that he feel them coming on, and I notice them starting. So, I really try to jump on it right away.

 

There must be some kind of connection between infection in general, tics, and antibiotics making them go away. Maybe that it pitand? Maybe my son had pandas and pitand at the same time last year, and now is totally susceptible to having it come on strong again. I don't know. He has a tic disorder that seems to come on strong with an infection/fever, and then goes away with azithromycin. Interesting. What is that all about?
