It would be more accurate if the subject said:
Sometimes Tourettes is Tourettes!

Many times Tourettes is PANDAS.

My son was diagnosed with Tourettes by a few neurologists and it ended up being PANDAS. After having motor and vocal tics for over a year, he was treated for PANDAS and he's BH better.

On the Tourettes sites they like to say there is no cure.
However they should say to rule out PANDAS.

Hatzlacha!


I think most people rule out pandas and other related illnesses before settling for a Tourette’s diagnosis unless they don’t know anything about anything. I know I did.

In many parts of the world pandas is largely unknown. Many physicians don't believe in it and will not suggest it and bring it up. It's the type of thing people find out about by word of mouth, via their own research, or through online forums where people crowdsource for solutions.

If you bring your child to a neurologist with tics, 99% of the time they will not mention pandas/pans.
