wondering about my Brother

[wedge]

So I recently had my first consultation with Dr. k and after speaking with him, which I think was the first time I was able to have a real conversation with a doctor. But from what he gathered, he told me PANDAS is close to definite and to start on antibiotics to see what happens. but I am now wondering about my brother. he has been dealing with serious anxiety as well. he doesn't live at home but I know he is struggling. I would like to tell him but I feel I should wait to see what happens first before sending him in the wrong direction. I think I just answerd my own question right now and im just doubting myself.

I would offer the information to your brother for him to look at and let him decide. How old are you, and how old is your brother? Are his symptoms similar to yours? Maybe you could introduce him to the Pandas network site, and this one.

 

Best wishes to you both!

I am 24 and my brother is 27. but I don't know what his symptoms are. all I know Is that he has become very negative over the years and he is hard to be around a lot of the times. Thank you for your response, I will offer the information and let him make a decision. unfortunately I have been avoiding my family for the most part because I have just started a trial run of antibiotics and my family has been kind of controlling about it which is a little stressful. I know they mean well but I feel I just need some space. The PANDAS dr I spoke with on the phone said he is 90% sure that its pandas. so im just trying to relax. Also I have a question, I had to pretty much pull teeth to get a trial of antibiotics from my DR. so I was wondering if anybody in the Tampa St. Pete area knew of someone who would be able to provide help in the future. But I cant see Dr. Murphy because I am an adult.
