Personal experiences with tourette syndrome.

Extractions: My name is Leonard Misner and on June 21, 1999, at 31 years old, I was diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome ( TS ), A.D.H.D. and OCD. Going forward, upon completion, this site will be dedicated to the education and help to those affected with T.S. Thanks to modern medical technology, the doctors have pinpointed the exact date I contracted T.S. 10-23-1967. the day I was born. It is hereditary passed on through generations affecting some and skipping others. Some people inherit the family fortune, I got T.S. Actually I am relieved, I can now put a name to the problems I've had all my life. About 4 or 5 out of every 10,000 people in the world have T.S.There are two types of tics. Motor and vocal. Most people with TS suffer from both to some extent. Most of my tics are in my arms, neck and head. Motor tics are involuntary movements of the body, and vocal tics can be a wide range of vocal sounds, from barking to swearing, whistling, screaming, saying the same word or phrase repeatedly. None of us want this, but we have it, and we have to live with it. There are many medications for this. some with severe side affects. I have tried a couple of medication with little help. I have decided not to continue medications. Although medication didn't help me, others are having great success with the medications.

Extractions: My Experience In September of 1996 my son was diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome. At that time, he was six years old. For a little over two years he had been doing things that I didn't understand. He would yell and scream while moving his neck in a shaking type of movement. He would have fits where he was just totally uncontrollable, I mean extremely upset. He couldn't sit still in chairs, he had to bounce up and down. He really couldn't sit still at all. He would spit constantly. He would repeat things over and over again. And if he became sick, these things were 100 times worse. I finally made the decision to take him to a Pediatric Neurologist. That day was a day I will never forget. The doctor told me that my son had Tourette Syndrome. I was in shock. I couldn't believe that my child had something, that at that time, I knew absolutely nothing about. Something I had no control over whatsoever. It took probably two months before I finally realized that Tourettes was not caused by me and the only person whose feelings really mattered was my sons. When I came to grip with that fact I began to research Tourettes. I found a lot of interesting information and sat down and shared it with my son.

Extractions: printer friendly TOURETTE SYNDROME home more about us in your area conditions information ... how you can help search this site Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome This is a condition characterised by multiple tics. Tics are involuntary twitch-like movements involving groups of muscles. In this syndrome, tics characteristically involve the facial area (e.g. blinking, grimacing, nodding) as well as phonic (vocal) tics, although any area can be involved. The tics range from very simple to more complex, purposeful movements. Vocal tics can be as simple as throat clearing or coughing. Tics can be suppressed for a short time and so, for example, the condition may appear different at school compared to home. The onset of the symptoms is usually between the ages of 5-11 with a maximum starting age of 21. There is a very wide range of severity so that many people with the condition may never need to seek medical attention whilst others have a socially disabling condition. Common associations of the syndrome are Obsessive Compulsive Disorder or Behaviour (OCD/OCB) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) (see separate entry.) In some cases echolalia (the repetition of phrases, or mimicking of gestures) may be present. A relatively rare feature in more severe cases is coprolalia (the involuntary use of obscene or offensive words) or copropraxia (the involuntary making of obscene gestures.)
