Any suggestions..Tourette's   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #1992 of 3472 |
Hi everyone,
I would like some suggestions for an eight year old boy that I am
treating. He was dx with Tourette's four years ago. His
manifestations include head jerking, arm twitches,& very occasional
inappropriate vocalization. It is exacebrated by the change in
seasons and when he has a cold. He is moderately overweight
(apparently due to the medication he is taking), has extremely
crooked teeth, and black eye shadows.
His tongue is slender, purplish red, moderate white coat with stasis
dots and slv distension. Pulse is slippery and rapid overall. Other
symptoms include: constipation, spring time allergies, intermittent
nausea and vomiting, and he tends to feel cold. There may be other
symptoms but I am working with a serious language barrier.
If anyone has some suggestions, especially those who have experience
with Tourette's cases that would be great.
Also if anyone can direct me to some "internal wind" readings
besides textbooks(Macciocia, Deng) , I would appreciate it.
Thank you for your consideration,
Mary

Hi Mary, It sounds like there are a lot of complicating factors, such as phlegm-dampness and interior heat, but I would still try to address the interior wind...
