Question

I've contacted someone who knows more about this than I do...

She'll be here later.

Can you provide some details until then?

1) did this start suddenly? Was your son slow to develop milestones as a baby?

2) is he on ADHD medication?

3) What is his diet like? Lots of sugar? juices?

4) What exactly are his "tics"?

If I were you I'd get an exact diagnosis from the neurologist ( in medical terminology) . As a parent you are entitled to that.
And be aware that many neuros are not very friendly, or treat people with compassion. When they don't know something they hide that lack. I'd get a copy of the MRI report, for yourself.
Some members here can understand the language and can help you understand it. If your regular doctor has a copy, see if he will give you one.(if you don't want to approach the neuro).
