In Part 1 of our examination of Anti-NMDA Receptor Encephalitis, I presented a late-onset case of autism. Similar cases have been shown to be caused by antibodies against NR1–NR2 heteromers of the NMDA receptor. There was really very little about the precipitating event that explained why the 9 year-old boy became a victim of such an extreme medical and behavioral illness. Because of its acute psychiatric manifestation, Anti-NMDA Receptor Encephalitis is often misdiagnosed as a psychiatric issue rather than a neurological-medical disease. Its apparent increase in cases has been debated as — a true increase or just better diagnosing? I have to say it — we, in the autism community, really dislike that phrase as it has become a mantra of ignorance in the face of truth.
