PANDAS/PANS: Identifying Infectious Triggers

All healing journeys start with an accurate diagnosis.

With PANDAS/PANS, identifying initial and ongoing infectious triggers is essential to guide treatment.
- A*O and anti-DNAseB (Strep titers)
- Mycoplasma
- Lyme
- Other Tick-borne Illness
- EBV
- Bartonella

Other organisms depending on medical history and response to standard treatments

As always, algorithms and protocols are starting points. Dr. Adame and her team meet patients and their families where they are in their journey, whether the child's symptoms started just weeks earlier or they have already received the entire PANDAS protocol including IVIG. She will adjust the diagnostic strategy depending on previous work up completed, history, and treatment goals.

Dr. Adame's High Protein Sourdough Sandwich Bread

This is show she does it. To her sourdough sandwich loaf recipe, she makes these modifications:
βœ… Substitute 120 grams of Elements Truffles Unflavored Protein Powder instead of bread flour
βœ… Add an extra 25-50 grams of water, as the protein powder makes the dough very dense
βœ… Inclusions: 3 tablespoons H/e-m/P seeds and 3 tablespoons Chia Seeds

Truvaga, a non-invasive Vagus Nerve Stimulator (niVNS), is a portable, natural, non-pharmaceutical option for anxiety and sleep support.

Stimulating the vagus nerve tells your brain that there is no bear.

You are safe. There is no threat. You do not need to be in fight or flight.

Truvaga works by delivering mild electrical impulses to the vagus nerve around the carotid artery which activates autonomic and limbic pathways to modulate sleep, stress, and vagal tone.

Dr. Adame uses it daily and recommends it to her patients as a non-pharmaceutical anxiety and sleep support intervention.

Use our affiliate πŸ”— in the c o m m e n t s for to purchase Truvaga.

Diagnosing PANDAS/PANS poses challenges because there is no one specific test to confirm the diagnosis.

And sometimes, you may hear that your child's symptoms are not due to PANDAS/PANS.

What happens next?

We go back to the drawing board. We retrace our steps. We review the history once again. We take a deep dive into the chart and what diagnostics we have up to that point.

It may be autism, ADHD, depression, generalized anxiety, cerebral folate deficiency, disruptive mood dysregulation disorder, primary immunodeficiency, MCAS, or a genetic or metabolic condition.

But all healing journeys start with an accurate diagnosis. And that why here, at Culver Peds, it is crucial to us that we understand YOUR child's specific needs.
