Children with autism and other neurodevelopmental disorders are at higher risk for PANS and PANDAS, yet their symptoms are often misdiagnosed or dismissed as part of their existing condition. In this episode of the Demystifying PANS/PANDAS Podcast, Dr. Debby Hamilton joins me to share her expertise on why these children are more susceptible, the role of infections and immune dysfunction, and how conventional medicine often overlooks critical diagnostic markers. We discuss real-life cases where children have experienced abrupt behavioral regressions due to untreated infections and highlight the need for a broader understanding of immune-mediated brain inflammation.
Dr. Hamilton also explores effective treatment strategies beyond traditional antibiotics, including herbal antimicrobials, immune system support, and anti-inflammatory interventions. She explains how parents and practitioners can identify immune dysfunction early and take a proactive approach to treatment. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking to understand the deeper connections between PANS/PANDAS, infections, and neurodevelopmental disorders.
