PANDAS & PANS: Returning Lost Children | Scott Antoine DO and Dr. Achina Stein
My biggest peeve with the medical system is that patients with mental health symptoms are not given a complete medical work-up nor are their physical symptoms even discussed.

Some people are inappropriately given psychiatric medication as the sole solution for a very real whole-body experience. The DSM-5 clearly states that a psychiatric diagnosis should not be given if the symptoms can be explained by a medical cause, but that is dependent...
