157. It's Not OCD- It's PANS- Healing Chronic Illness in Kids with Lori Weir

Themes: PANS, PANDAS, Mold Illness, Homeopathy

Episode:

Have you noticed that your kids have had a behavior change? More outbursts? Melt downs? Even OCD like tendencies? It may not be OCD at all… It may be PANS, Pediatric Acute-onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome, often linked to Mold Illness. To Talk about this today, we have Vital-Side Operations Manager, homeopathy student, and mother of 3, Lori Weir.

Lori’s 3 kids have all been affected by mold and chronic illness, specifically PANS & MCAS, ranging over the years since 2018. She has a background in psychology and is currently studying homeopathy after it played a huge part in her and her kids' healing. She is passionate about helping others see their own capability for self-healing. Listen to this episode to hear Lori’s story and learn about the signs and symptoms that may be linked to your child’s chronic illness.
