Hello from a fellow Tourette's sufferer! My father passed the genes down to myself and my sister, though her tics are extremely mild. I mostly have moderate facial tics, with an abdominal tic or two every once in a while. When I was 5 I had to be put on Haloperidol and Clonidine for a while because I was uncontrollably blinking to such an extent that I couldn't see properly!
My question:
I've found that barometric pressure can be a huge trigger, and as such before a storm I'll usually start experiencing a very sudden explosion of tics. Do you experience this as well?
