| | Amazon.com: Books: Thriving With Your Autoimmune Disorder: A Woman's Mind-Body Guide |
 | | The author does not substantially address the many environmental factors that are thought to contribute to autoimmune disease, and provides little in the way of leading-edge information on traditional or alternative-medicine approaches to specific conditions, or autoimmune diseases as a whole. |  | | Her primary interest appears to be psychological health, and this interest seems evident, because it is through this lens that her approach to autoimmune diseases appears to be heavily filtered. |  | | While the author means well, she is a psychologist with expertise in post-traumatic stress syndrome, and according to her author bio, she conducts workshops on stress management in her practice. |

| | PANDAS -- Neurotransmitter.net |
 | | Future research are needed to explore the nature of PANDAS and their relationship with different psychiatric disorders in children and adolescents. |  | | Although much research remains to be done, an increasing body of evidence provides support for the postulate that OCD and tic disorders may arise from post-streptococcal autoimmunity. |  | | It is, however, important to distinguish between these two post-streptococcal disorders since their response to therapy differs. |

| | Mixed Connective Tissue Disorder |
 | | If advocates for autoimmune diseases can unite, the magnitude of the problem will compel researchers, and more importantly the funding sources, drug companies and the government, to recognize autoimmunity as a priority for research and development. |  | | New knowledge and treatments will come from other disease research, especially AIDS and Cancer research, which are richly funded. |  | | Thomas McPherson Brown MD has shown that antibiotics enhance the immune system by removing Mycoplasma that the immune system is attempting to eliminate. |

| | Autoimmune disorder |
 | | In Rave's case, it simply would have "bought her time" for the drugs to work - drugs to which she was not responding at all. |  | | Many believe that bad vaccines or over-vaccination (vaccinating more than is necessary, therefore weakening the natural immune system) can instigate the disorder. |  | | We began an immediate drug therapy of prednisone and an antibiotic to help with the high temperature. |

| | Bowel Finding Suggests Autism Is Autoimmune Disorder |
 | | Use of immunohistochemical techniques had suggested a novel form of colitis, in which the epithelium of the colon was particularly affected (Journal of Pediatrics 2001; 138: 366-372), and, thus, possibly suggestive of autoimmunity. |  | | Further work thus clearly needs to be done to determine the role of the "gut-brain axis" in autism. |  | | This finding suggests that autism may be an autoimmune disorder. |

| | Strep Link To Obsessive-compulsive Disorder |
 | | "A bacteria trigger for an autoimmune response" can lead to a worsening of obsessive-compulsive disorder, reported Dr. Susan E. Swedo, head of the section on behavioral pediatrics at the NIMH. |  | | Studies show antidepressants in combination with cognitive behavior therapy can decrease symptoms of this disorder. |  | | Swedo said that OCD is a "hidden epidemic." Feelings of embarrassment and knowledge of their irrational state force most patients to live an average of 17 years with the symptoms before seeking a diagnosis, Swedo added. |
