Excerpt:
The significance of this study assists in broadening the diagnosis of Infectious Triggered Autoimmune Encephalopathy/PANS vs. PANDAS further proving that Strep isn’t the only microbial culprit contributing to this condition and further confirming that autoimmune, neuro-inflammatory conditions can in fact be triggered by Lyme disease. The hope is solidifying an encompassing diagnosis that guides treatment lessening further misdiagnosis of children with psychiatric disorders.
