PANDAS – Could Your Child’s Behavior Changes Be Cured with an Antibiotic?

Has your child suddenly changed?... Experiencing unexplained anxiety, depression, OCD behaviors, or other alarming shifts? It could be PANDAS (Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Streptococcal Infections), an often overlooked condition triggered by a common strep infection.


In this powerful episode, Dr. Ravi Kumar shares his deeply personal story of discovering PANDAS after his own daughter faced dramatic behavior changes that baffled doctors and devastated his family. Learn why PANDAS is frequently misdiagnosed, leaving families confused and children untreated.


In this episode, you'll discover:

  • What exactly PANDAS is and how it affects children's brains.
  • Why many doctors still overlook or misunderstand this condition.
  • Dr. Kumar’s personal journey with his daughter's diagnosis and remarkable recovery.
  • The critical role of antibiotics and other treatments in reversing symptoms.
  • What steps parents can take if they suspect their child has PANDAS.

Don't miss this vital episode. It might be the key to restoring a child's health and happiness.
