Strep throat? is streptococcus deadly? links to other illnesses? ocd? |
When i was roughly 7 years old i came down with a terrible case of strep throat, it was almost in a day. I was admitted to the hospital and doctors immediately removed my tonsils as there was an abscess, at this point i was very ill, i was told i had a stretococcus infection that didnt need oxygen to survive i believe??? im not too sure, it took the doctors a while to figure out what i had, i was almost airlifted to a larger hospital. How dangerous could this have been? life threatening? the reason im asking is i was recently diagnosed with a mild form of ocd nothing major but still the doctors think there might be a casual relation from this, i had obessessive tendencies when i was young as well, mainly they were inward intrusive thoughts, any help would be great, thankyou There have been some studies linking Strep with OCD. You can read up on the studies for P.A.N.D.A.S. Stands for Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Streptococcal Infections. There are differing opinions on whether this is an accurate diagnosis. It is said to run in families. If you are still having trouble with OCD, see a psychologist or psychiatrist for behavorial therapy. |
