Greater general #Awareness #Understanding needed of conditions #Pans caused by misdirected immune response to an unknown trigger and #Pandas triggered by strep A resulting in inflammation in the brain. Not rare! Rarely diagnosed.

Such unnecessary prolonged suffering, loss & sadness due 2 lack of appropriate treatment pathways. Prompt diagnosis & treatment is essential 2 prevent exacerbation of symptoms & gives best chance of recovery. Prompt treatment of subsequent flares also imperative!

Still in 2024! All with #Pans #Pandas need to be recognized and receive appropriate care. Too much time has passed. Too many left to suffer!

My daughter developed eating restriction as part of her #Pans due to fear of choking, being too full leading to possible illness & fears of contamination. If your child develops food avoidance or restriction with other changes please consider #Pans #Pandas

‘successfully researching and treating children with PANS for years’👇🏻#PansPandasHour

Sadly these symptoms are all too common with #Pans #Pandas The child's world becomes so small as does that of the parent/s & can have far reaching consequences for any siblings and extended family. Not rare!

Remember to consider #Pans #Pandas 👇🏻

It’s important to know the signs of #PANS #PANDAS

Open letter from PANS PANDAS UK to new Health Minister Wes Streeting. Families suffering #Pans #Pandas have long advocated for change. Needs to be an end to the prolonged suffering that currently occurs due 2 lack of recognition, education, diagnosis, treatment & support. Not rare, rarely diagnosed!

Everything starts with awareness without which the correct treatment can neither be sought or given.Awareness is the key 2 change & with the growth of that awareness resistance 2 change must cease!Further generations should not be allowed 2 succumb 2 #Pans #Pandas
