Tic disorder

My two sons both have strange tic disorders and they both started around the age of 4. I feel it has something to do with the vaccinations they received before starting school. My oldest son is almost 12 and still has facial tics along with neck and shoulder tics too. My younger son age 6 has facial and vocal tics. I have had them tested for many things and still come up with no answers! I feel like I will never get an answer to this. The more I read about immunizations the more I hear of hundreds of children coming down with tics after vaccinations. Does anyone have any new ideas or information. Thanks!

I agree that many children including the12 teen age girls recently in the news who broke out' in Tic and tourette symptoms, many people do believe that vaccinations could be a reason, however it has not been proved .Maybe a good idea to do some research for your self and get in touch with others whose children have same Good luck
