What is PANDAS/PANS?

PANDAS stands for Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Syndrome Associated with Streptococcal Infections (or just strep) and PANS stands for Pediatric Acute Onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome. As the name suggests, PANDAS is caused by strep-related infections whereas PANS can be caused by any other infection or sickness, even things like the common cold and mold in the home.

How does someone develop PANDAS/PANS? When a person gets sick the immune system attacks the infection to get rid of it, but in some people the immune system gets messed up and attacks the basal ganglia(a part of the brain) instead of the infection, which in turn causes brain inflammation. Brain inflammation can cause a wide range of symptoms such as hallucinations and delusions, obsessive compulsive behavior, depression and anxiety, tics, dystonia, chronic pain and fatigue, derealization/depersonalization/dissociation, disordered eating behavior, memory loss, brain fog, selective mutism, etc. Not every person is going to have all or even most of the symptoms, and the symptoms themselves tend to come and go. Typically symptoms flare up every time the person gets sick/has another infection in their body.

As someone who has PANS, it’s really important to recognize and clock this disease before it can get too far. It affects 1 in 200 children and you never know when it will be massively important to recognize it. It destroyed my life- all because I got COVID and my immune system messed up. I’m lucky that I got diagnosed and recognized within two years of having PANS, because so many people aren’t that lucky. Even reading this whole thing has helped you to bring more awareness and possibly help someone else. If you have any questions please ask, because I’m more than open to answering them!
