Homeopathy appears to be taking on PANDAS.

I guess I am letting the cat out of the bag regarding where my current research is leading (not that many of you will be surprised by my interest in natural remedies). Here is a compelling article written by the Homeopathy Center of Houston about PANDAS (they are popular within the autism community and tend to take the sequential approach, from what I can tell):

Check out the second blog as well (underneath the pandas blog). Will make you cringe.

 

Ok, upon further review I see that it is not Sue Swedo's quote, forget that (I can't delete that from the heading). Still an awesome read!

Hi there-

I looked into Houston Center for Homeopathy last Spring- they are wicked expensive ($500-$1,000 a month)

Also, Pierre Fountain treats PANDAS with a constitutional rememdy- he has many success stories, and I believe, a 9 month waiting list right now- he does Skype appts., and really has a talent and gift.

I did try homeopathy about a year ago, last Spring- before I knew anything about PANDAS, so really, I wasn't explaining my daughter correctly- but we went to a 'well known' homeopath (the gentleman who treated Amy Lanky's son) and for us, it did not work out. Tried another homeopath, with a different rememdy, and that didn't work out either- we had side effects. It was about a 2 month trial before I stopped completely.

But again, I did not know PANDAS.

If I were to try it again, I would set up an appt. with Pierre Fountain. (sp.? of last name)

He wrote the book, Homeopathy, Sweet Homeopathy.

I have been in touch with his office several times recently. He has taken on an interest in PANDAS. I have been in touch with one parent so far who has had succes in terms of pandas. Looking for more success stories on other forums. Oh, the spelling: Pierre Fontaine, and his assistant, Angelica (can't remember last name). I'm waiting to get more info from them...

 

By the way, while your unsuccessful attempts at homeopathy are disheartening, I had the same experience with my first DAN doctor. He was able to help my youngest b/c he did not yet have pandas. But my oldest he was unable/unwilling to help b/c he didn't understand pandas. I later moved on to two other biomed docs that really get it. With this disease, I think you have to have the best of the best no matter what route you take.
