Hello. I am hoping to get a recommendation for what kind of physician I should contact. One of my triplets (boy - age 8 years) has been exhibiting tourette-like tics (without having been clinically diagnosed) and although I can be put on the wait list to see a pediatric neurologist (5-6 month waiting list,) I see the symptoms increasing and it scares me! I was wondering if was best to see an environmental physician or a naturopath - or they one in the same? Please - any guidance would help!
He started with excessive blinking and here and now:
sniffing
throat clearing
humming
severe stuttering (past month)
eye rolling and facial grimaces (this morning)
licking of lips (very chapped)
jumping
holding breath
Thank you!
