[QUOTE="tictoc, post: 330587, member: 7916"] Hi, It sounds like a trip to the neuro is in order. Manster is at the age when tics can start to increase (before, hopefully, declining again). How much clonidine does he take? My difficult child takes a whopping dose of clonidine (.4 mg, in the form of wearing two .2 mg patches simultaneously). He was sleepy for a few days every time we increased the dose, but the sleepiness wore off quickly. Mouth tics can be very painful and the type you described can also lead to a headache. difficult child never complains about his tics EXCEPT when they involve his mouth. I have an "eat all the popsicles you want" policy when he is having a mouth tic. They can help with the mouth pain, but unfortunately not with the headache. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
