Description
Has your child's personality seemed to change overnight? Has he or she been exhibiting unusual symptoms like tics, obsessive-compulsive disorder, separation anxiety, oppositional defiance, aggression or rage? Have you seen other symptoms, which seem unrelated, like a decline in math and handwriting abilities, urinary issues, sensory issues or trouble sleeping? These are trademark symptoms of PANDAS/PANS.
PANDAS and PANS are becoming more common in children, yet many in the medical community are unaware of these illnesses and are unable to diagnose and treat them properly. Whether you are just beginning on this journey and attempting to get a proper diagnosis for your child or have been on this journey for a while and need help coping, The Parent's Survival Guide to PANDAS/PANS will help you navigate the emotional, physical and financial challenges of these illnesses.

• Learn how to obtain a proper diagnosis
• Explore treatment options
• Set expectations for your family and others
• Gain support and self-care
• Learn tips and tricks to help manage day-to-day
• Connect with extensive resources
