Re: Today Show - Sneezing Girl - PANDAS

[Guest guest]

I saw that yesterday when they were asking the public for idea and I

immediately thought of PANDAS. I kept meaning to write in but never got

around to it. Glad someone else did.

That's what I immediately thought about too as well as Tourette's or Tourettism.

As soon as I saw it yesterday, I knew it was a tic - even before

Schneiderman commented. Amazing that they had to go on national tv to get some

more accurate feedback. I hope they do a follow up!

Bringing a lot to light! My husband has a tic or two as does his mom and

sister, and his dad is a very anxious person as is my husband. On my side of

the family, there are also anxiety disorders as well as some motor coordination

issues and nonverbal learning disorder. I guess that set the stage for what I

see in Matt. Looks like he got everyone's bad genes! Well, he got some good

ones too - let's just hope that we're able to change the impact of the negative

ones.
