There's just so much we don't know about our bodies and how they behave. Adolescents are extra difficult because there's just so much going on. That doesn't mean every theory out there is correct.
Even without any subject matter knowledge, I can't help but to note that if you have a bunch of kids with strange symptoms, and put them on any cure for a number of months and even years, you would expect to see a few miraculous recoveries. That type of data is completely absent in the article, we're just given a few anecdotes, which would otherwise have helped us understand the reactions from the medical establishment.
The named person seems to have been constantly on antibiotics for over four years, and still has remissions sometimes as often as monthly. How that is interpreted as proof that an highly atypical strep infection is causing the symptoms remains unexplained.
