melanie Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 Can some one please explain the hystimine process with Tourette's. PLEASE. Do I need more or less. I just completed reading 2 papers and still I don't understand if he has to much or not enough. Thanks Melanie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chemar Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 Honestly Melanie it does seem to me to vary greatly with the individual so even though some research **on families** have shown results in one direction....imo that does not apply to all people with TS dx...especially as just the anecdotal reports on this very forum show such a wide range.... We have had people whose tics improve greatly with anti-histamines And others who see to require histamine. My son has genetic TS and does not tolerate histamine So I think the only way to really know is trial and error or specific testing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melanie Posted June 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 What can I use safely to increase histamine. He has used Benadryl in the past. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chemar Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 melanie...benadryl is an ANTI-histamine ie it reduces histamine before you attempt anything to increase it, you really should first consult with your child's physician to be sure that is what he needs!
