TeamTyrion Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 My ds6 just got sick yesterday and he developed a terrible swearing tic (lots of F words and Sh** words) as well as some OCD. I have always felt he has TS but keep hearing how those with Pandas/Pans have flare-ups when they are ill. My question is...can you also flare up if you have TS and are ill? Thanks, Lisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
my2sons Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 Following...my ds does the opposite...when he gets sick his tics go down. Interested to hear what others have to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chemar Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 The responses to this question here have always been variable....due most likely to the fact that different people tic for different and often complex reasons. I honestly think that, with the prevalence of PANS, if a child tics or has other neuro or psych symptoms with illness, investigating PANS is a wise decision. remember too that just because a child has TS, that does not mean they do not also have PANS. The 2 are not mutually exclusive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
