I hope this does work for you! My son suffers from extreme OCD and I learned about this from a good friend of mine that works at the hospital in the psych unit. The study was part of her internship, so she gave me the info about it to bring up to his doctor. The results of the study will be released sometime either this spring or summer, and it will probably take some time for the knowledge to be embraced by doctors in the mental health community and insurance companies alike. She also said that the ramifications of this discovery in the mental health world will probably stem more research studies regarding other mental health issues such as depression or bipolar. If they can link OCD to a bacterial infection, it might be possible to find a bacterial / viral links to these other infections as well! Let's all keep positive thoughts about this, because it could change all our lives forever!
