Hey Noa,
thanks for your website research.
luckily, as i only have the one tic, i am not diagnosable w/ a 'movement disorder.'
but whenever i do a neurological exam in the dr's office, my reflexes come back unusually fast, along with some other minor 'abnormal' findings. i've had so much testing, and am doing so well, that it's no longer really a concern.
i kind of wonder if the whole thing, for me, could be related to having been born a month premature and not breathing at birth. shortly after birth, i jaundiced and had to stay in the hospital for a few days. there could have been some minor brain changes that led to this. but knowing how much harder life has been for other premies, i feel lucky.
