Sarah CB Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Ds is still constantly having tics. However, last night something weird happened. He has night terrors but last night was much different than "regular" night terrors. He came out of bed and was upset about his hands hurting - basically right inside his palms. He was crying, rubbing his hands, even hitting them together at one point to stop the pain. This went on for about 10 minutes and then it stopped. I'm wondering if this is related to the tics? Was this some kind of extreme tic? Or was this just a night terror? What caused the pain in his hands? Sarah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacy in NJ Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Tourettes Syndrome. He hasn't had an experience like you're describing about your son's hands. I wouldn't necessarily worry overly much about this, though. Kids just do weird things sometimes. Keep yours eye on him and see if it repeats, if it does, talk to your pediatrician.

godpoetry Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 My son did this a few times. He has seizures. I ask the doctor about it, but all they could tell me was that it was either a product of the seizure or the medicine causing a reaction. Since they lowered his Trileptal he hasn't had anymore, so I just figured it was the high dose of the medicine. What medicine is your son on? Sometimes these things can just happen, that is what his doctor told us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
