Hi Dawn,
Welcome

!
Unfortunately, it does take time to sort this all out. Peds often don't diagnose TS in younger children.
Does anyone in your family or his dad's family have TS/tics? Can you think of anything which happened last fall to trigger these?
I think it's fine to bring up TS with the neurologist and see what she/he says. It's tough when there are multiple neuro symptoms to figure it all out as there is overlap.
Others may have thoughts and ideas.
Take care,
Tessa
