Hi everyone. I just found this thread

I'm so glad that ives has somewhere to ask about the seizures investigations as that's not something either of my children have nor myself have although my son did have some tests when he was little to rule out seizure activity. I've been replying to ives on the TS forum.

There are lots of different eye tics. Eye rolling can actually be a tic. I'm not saying it is in her son's case 'cause I'm not a doctor, but just wanted to post a couple of lists of tics so that might help a little. There's a lot of overlap in many different conditions. It's not possible for me to say from looking at the videos. I just hope that ives can get this sorted out as soon as possible just in case they _are_ seizure because I know that's really important.

Those lists are just guides, they don't include all possible tics.
The interesting thing is that if you look through those lists of tics you'll find a lot that could also be part of a seizure disorder too.

I hope you don't mind I posted that, but there are so many different sorts of eye tics. Not everyone has the same tics.
