Patient Stories

Could neuropsychiatric symptoms be due to an infection(s) and autoimmune response?

In some individuals, an infection can trigger an abnormal immune response, whereby autoantibodies, intended to fight the infection, mistakenly attack healthy cells in the brain, resulting in the onset of neurologic and/or psychiatric symptoms.

Receiving a proper diagnosis and treatment can dramatically change a patient’s life.
