"turning back the pages"


Recommended Posts

I have heard the term "turning back the pages" after IVIG. If I'm understanding it correctly, it means that kids actually get worse, and show more symptoms or a return of symptoms following IVIG.

 

My questions are: Does this "turning back the pages" happen with "normal, non-pandas" kids who get IVIG purely for immune reasons?

 

Also, is this just a term coined by one of the pandas docs that basically means "I have no idea what or why it happens, but it happens, so we will give it a name?"

 

And finally, WHY does it happen? Scientifically?
