Can tics in tourettes be caused by a magnesium disorder?
My son is 5 and has tics.His doctor said that it is all signs of tourettes. He goes back to the doc in Nov for the diagnosis. I asked his doctor if he could have a magnesium defeciency and she said that it was not very likely. I am still being pressured by family to give my son a magnesium suppliment . He is not complaining of the tics at all. Some days they are really severe and others we hardly notice them at all. What can I do other than ignore it like the doc said and don’t worry about meds until my son is complaining of the tics.
