[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 174491, member: 1550"] Even if he has a urinary tract infection, he has classic signs of both Tourettes and autistic spectrum disorder (high functioning). My son has Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified. It's a higher functioning form of autistic spectrum disorder. Be careful--it's hard to GET the diagnosis! The hand flicking is a classic stimulant and so is Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). I would take him to both a regular Neurologist to check him for Tourettes and a neuropsychologist to see if he is on the spectrum. His sensitivities also point to Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)--sensory issues. He should be getting interventions for his symptoms, regardless of his diagnosis, and usually that comes from school. NeuroPsychs can be found at children's and university hospitals and are well worth the usual waiting list as they do more intensive evaluations, on every level, than any other professional. good luck.
