Hello I am new to this forum....
My husband is living with TS and has been since the age of 8 he is now almost 37.. he has always worked with his TS but as he ages we have noticed he is having more and more physical aliments do to his motor tics.. mostly continuely sore muscles and joints from the jerking motion he makes with his arms.( very strong) . He is finding it harder and hard to go to work and make it thru the day.. He is a Truck driver for the recycling Co. My questions are two fold.. One has any adult in this forum had to resort to claiming SSI for their inability to work do to their TS.. and second I have read about the treatment used for Parkinsons that has now been used for a man with TS and had almost 100 % relief from his tics. The treatment is called Deep Brain Stimulation.. Has anyone on this forum tried to find out about having this operation performed?
Thanks for reading,
Tonyswife
