Hrosenkrantz Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) I have a friend who is investigating whether her kid has PANDAS. The kid's strep ASO is in normal range (like two digits) and has gone down with time. But the anti dnas b strep antibodies are high, in the 300s, and have gone up with time.Why is that? If anti dnase b means there was an infection at one time, why would the level go up? Edited June 10, 2014 by hrosenkrantz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pr40 Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 you may not like this answer. many blood tests are not precise and therefore numbers are not exact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryAW Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Remember too, that there is PANS. My DD has never had strep, but has PANS. It was triggered by a virus 2 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
