A member asked:

Do you think its a possibility i have tourettes? i have the symptoms to be diagnosed, i just want input. my tics since age 10: head jerk, hand flap, blinking tic, hitting arm, eye roll, sniffing, sneeze sound, click sound, tiao, wooh, etc.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

That might be it.: Pediatric Neurologist can help. Some of them will see college-aged patients. Otherwise, a general Neurologist can help. Tics and Tourette Syndrome are sort of similar disorders, different degrees of severity. Unfortunately there hasn't been any good treatments, but maybe some new ones that Neurologists learn about before other doctors know about. Also, look up PANDAS (the disorder, not the bears).
