Thank you so much Sheila. I really really appreciate your response!! I am focusing on a super clean diet too and hoping it clears. He sometimes takes Claritin for outdoor allergies so will add to his morning routine for the antihistamine properties. Thank you!!!

My child has been GF /DF and egg free for 2 years due to IgG food intolerances. This kept tics very mild. Really only had a small breathing tic. I didn’t do probiotics either as in the past, it caused increases. About 2-3 weeks ago we decided to let our child try eggs again. WE felt they were doing well . So over the course of 4-5 days many scrambled eggs were given. In the past if our child ate one of the intolerant foods it was 1x and it took about 3 days to clear. now i feel with the eggs we have put ourselves back to square 1. It has been 2-3 weeks and the grimace tic that came about after the eggs is still there. I am so upset with myself for cooking eggs. Plus I then tried a probiotic which was a mistake. is it about 6 weeks for foods to clear? has anybody done this and been able to reset back to where you were. I’m so so sad. We are doing Epsom salt baths at night to aid in detoxing.

Has anybody found success with tic reduction from broad spectrum digestive enzymes? If so, what did you use, and how is your child doing? Thank you!

Limemom how is your 7 year old doing?

Tropea22, I may look into this as well. Thank you Chemar!

Tropea22 did you ever find a liquid B6 vitamin?

This is such wonderful information! thank you!

Hi! Last week my son was sick with a stomach bug for 1 day. Prior to being sick, his blinking tic and humming tic had gotten very mild. Since he’s been sick, he’s having a flare. I’m wondering if I should be doing some probiotics for gut healing from being sick. Could that be causing the flare? Has anybody had this happen to their child? If so, what worked for you? thank you!

Thank you! I haven’t heard of these. So you put them in lamps and lights in your home? Especially in lights in areas where computers are used?

Thank you Chemar for your response! What are daylight lightbulbs?

Hello, We have been able to manage my son’s minor tics mostly thru diet (GF+DF), some exercises, Epsom salt baths and magnesium. It keeps the tics very subtle Just this week though he is getting worse/having a flare. We are at home for school become of the virus, so maybe it is the increased screen time. Then I think maybe it’s something in our house. Or it could be seasonal allergies. It is so upsetting. I don’t know what to do. 😢 any advise?

Thank you all for these Insightful perspectives. I do so appreciate it.

Hi Eatmoregreens, How is your son doing? My son has a blinking tic and I was just wondering if you found something that helped your son that you could recommend. Thanks!

Thank you Chemar. You have so many good points. I really appreciate your kind perspective and insight. I will take them to heart. And you are right. You only have your youth once.

Thank you Sheila for your response! The overnight trip is in 2 months
