My friend eventually consulted with a doctor in New Jersey that is developing a specialization in PANDAS/PANS. He prescribed a specific antibiotic, for a much longer duration. The behavior improved, the boy’s obsessions and ticks reduced,and eventually went away. The boy is now very self-aware, and can sense when he is is declining. Ticks will begin to return... what can it hurt to have blood testing done?

Had never heard of this, but it explains behaviors I've seen in my own family. Good article:
