Mrs. D, my grandson was diagnosed with Tourettes Syndrome yesterday, he has uncontrolable blinking and an arm jerk. Would it be safe to say he could benefit from these same supplements as used for epilepsy? What can we make of the the autoimmune in the family? My grandson survived AML Leukemia, his mom developed Graves Disease, now her youngest son has Tourrettes, my husband has Rheumatoid, and I of course have idiopathic PN as well as Rheumatoid. I'm getting paranoid about my well water and whatever else could be causing all this? We also were in the northern jet stream when they were nuclear testing in Nevada and then winter jet stream when Chernobyl happened in Russia. My family members think I'm crazy...and of course maybe I am! We have no family histories of anything but thyroid problems, it just baffles me to no end.
