[QUOTE="sartist, post: 705713, member: 21246"] I'm sorry you are going through this. My son is four. He too has started doing strange finger posturing with twisting of the fingers or pinky finger over the ring finger. This posturing only presents itself when he is sick, tired or stressed. 90% or more of the time he is what one would describe as a typical child, but he is a completely different child the other 10% of the time. These features seem to come and go. He has experienced aggression, high emotion, insomnia, finger posturing, sensory issues, possible Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) (he may very infrequently answer a question with a number) and I have very reluctantly been able to pull a conversation from him where it seems that an inanimate object may be contributing to his moods and coercing his aggressive behavior (possible auditory hallucination). All of this is onset after a recent hospitalization back in April where he experienced anaphylactic shock in response to a viral infection. Things have changed in a big way since that day. I am very interested in following your posts because of the similar features with hand posturing and that he seems to function on a high scale despite showing occasional autism symptoms. Wishing you the best for you and your son. [/QUOTE]
