Guest guest Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Most kids with PANDAS seem to do well on antibiotics. You can do the ASO test, and there is a newer test called D8-17 that may be a better indicator of PANDAS (or response to IVIG). Is there strep in her stool? My son regressed after strep infection, and during the first few years after his regression, he always did much better on antibiotics. > > Hello, > > I have a 7 year old daughter with autism.

Guest guest Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Hi, Do you mean if the D8/17 test is positive, it might indicate a more promising result from IVIG? .
