Lydiasmum Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Hi. We are 18 months in to the world of PANDAS since the first noticeable episode (August 2012). Two further flares (April and August 2013). Now we are just about to enter another I think.... April 2014! There is a pattern here. What is the significance? I wonder if its seasonal allergies, although the August flare last year followed 4 weeks after a diagnosed strep throat. DD6 has been on prophylaxis abx for past 8 months so I'm thinking it's not likely to be strep related this time. Her mood is good but I am noticing the movements and a bit of OCD ramping up the past few days. What is it about April and August? Can anyone relate?

qannie47 Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Spring is strep season...so exposure can do the trick...also, remember pandas kids can be asymptomatic with strep. I always check just to be sure...Seasonal allergies and the autoimmune inflammation response is not our friend either... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3bmom Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 I have always wondered why our 3 worst flares have all been April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ibcdbwc Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Prior to this year, March and April were always our worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
