kallik Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 My son has nose twitches, mouth twitches, etc. What has helped your child with facial grimaces? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faith Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 Kalik, I can't say anything about what may help with the facial, except that I wouldn't be surprised if it passes quickly. I've seen a nose twitch and also with the mouth in the past with my son, and those don't seem to last long, maybe a few weeks or so. Those are somewhat minor, I feel, and I would just keep doing the same as you usually do, maybe just add a touch more magnesium? Faith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janey Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 My son has nose twitches, mouth twitches, etc. What has helped your child with facial grimaces? Hi, My son has the nose twitches. I would say that the magnesium taurate has the greatest benefit for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kallik Posted February 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Janey, How much magnesium taurate do you give your child? My son gets 250 mill. a day right now. Maybe I should increase it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chemar Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 kallik have you ever tried L carnitine? some find it very benficial for all head related tics. Not everyone can tolerate this amino acid so if you try it do introduce slowly usual dose is 500mg per day re Mag taurate...we have never given it in combined form but have always supplemented 500mg taurine and 500 mg magnesium per day and my son gets sufficient calcium to balance the magnesium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, I give him 500mg, I found that if I try to decrease it, the nose twitch comes back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
