> Did they define myoclonus as a form of tic?
No, I don't think so. They define tics as follows:
"Tics are intermittent, repeated, stereotyped movements or sounds that may occur in an infrequent or almost continuous manner."
and they define myoclonus as follows:
"sudden, brief, jerky, shock-like, involuntary movements"
> Acc. to my doctor, the myoclonus is not related to tardive diskenesia. Is that correct?
Yes that is correct as far as I know.
