About this campaign
This t-shirt represents well over 500 children that have a debilitating autoimmune condition. PANDAS (Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorder Associated with Step) and PANS (Pediatric Acute-onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome) are conditions in which the immune system does not respond properly to bacteria, viruses, allergens and other immune triggers. The autoimmune response of causes antibodies to mistakenly attack the brain causing inflammation in the basal ganglia. That inflammation leads to an onset of symptoms that can vary in severity. Symptoms can include obsessions, compulsions, anxiety, vocal and motor tics, abnormal movements, decline in math skills, processing skills, dramatic change in handwriting ability, irrational fears, insomnia, urinary frequency, personality changes, sensory issues, aggression and food avoidance. Symptoms can often come on suddenly and can be debilitating. Symptoms of PANDAS/PANS are very often misdiagnosed for other conditions such as OCD, ADHD, Tourettes Syndrome, movement disorders and behavioral disorders, therefore leading to inappropriate treatment.
