Holistic/Natural Treatments for PANDAS/PANS

[vvny]

Hi All

 

We have a 8yr old son who possibly has PANDAS/PANS/TS...main symptoms are vocal/motor tics with anxiety/fear and flare ups after any illness now.He had one positive strep last year and was treated for 2 months on antibiotics for tics flare up post strep.Since then he has had 3-4 sore throat but not tested positive for strep or mycoplasma.

He again has an extreme flare up of tics this time and is again on antibiotics past 3 weeks now.His tics have gone down to sixty percent .

Is there any good doctor who does a complete work up to find out the exact cause of my son's triggers ? We did make an appointment to see Dr.B in Rhinebeck and we do believe he does integrative care.

Has anyone tried homeopathy or any other treatments with success for PANDAS/PANS ?

We are looking to get him off antibiotics and just manage his symptoms / flare ups with supplements and holistic care.

Please ...any advice is greatly appreciated as I am so overwhelmed by all the information and I just want the right direction.

 

We have tried diet elimination , magnesium supplements , not much help with both. Hope to get some help from all of you experts !

 

Thanks in advance

I just posted a question on probiotic enemas and whether anyone has tried or if there is research on this. There was an article on Educate Your Immune System in the NYX that talks about the micro biome and autoimmune connection.
