[QUOTE="Matty's Mummy, post: 152215, member: 5222"] [SIZE=2]He has meet all milestones at good time No speech delays but oh yes extreme sensitivities to foods, clothing, light and sounds. Even as a new baby, if I took him to the shopping centre he would scream and scream. I worked out if I covered him in the pram from the fluoro lights he was ok. Food is really bad, he has only just stoped sicking up at the site of new foods. He would throw up as soon as he spotted a different/ new food on his plate. He is the same with any new clothes, cries and carries on, if I leave them sitting around the house, dont make a fuss that they are new, eventually he will just wear them. At 2 and 3 years he wouldnt wear long sleeves.,.. No matter how cold. I took him to play group, (where mums and children meet up kids play mums chat) Matty @ 4years old cried and cried cause of the noise of the musical instruments the kids wear playing with. Yet at Kindy his teacher has never seen any of this. I have 4 other children my eldest is 18year he suffered from vocal tics for a while, around the time of Bone graft surgery, I think it was stress related, he also did a strang movement that was like he was shooting hoops ( acting like he was playing with a basket bal while walling through shopping centres, and calling out odd noses) So I do have a very limited understanding of tics, I never even thought of them for this though. Might make more sense than the Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) I was thinking. Because the flicking, catching of breath is all isolated with no other movements going on. Although I do think he might have Apsergers, as his brother also has. But I think those things are different to the flicking /catching of breath For instance, if he asks for a ice cream, if I get up to get it he can have a major melt down because in his mind his Dad was getting it, and its not a brat thing where he is just being difficult. He cries so bad and so hard you can see it is totally traumatising him. Until I put the ice cream back and his father gets it There is a whole list of things. I better get them on paper for the Pead visit. Ill have a look at the links thank you so much for a speedy reply. I feel calmer already, just having off loaded it. PS he is doing these as well Opening his mouth wide or gritting it shut Whistling - he only just learnt this so I wasnt concerned but then tonight he started doing it with the blowing while on the toilet. [/SIZE][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2][/SIZE][/FONT][SIZE=2]Would these be what my son is doing ?, they havent gone into any details. Smallworld Thank you for the link I think I read that one but lost it and couldnt find it again So you are saying we can still have him tested for Strep Ill ask about that tomorrow There is just so much going on here. I put of the diagnoses of Apsergers, for far to long and no we have this its going to be hard I think getting the right diagnose for him. Oh I just realised that is the most important part its getting the help and therapy, that is important. Sorry I have rambled on so much [/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
