Tourette syndrome is a neurological disorder characterized by repetitive, involuntary movements and vocalizations called tics. It often starts in childhood and typically involves both motor and vocal tics. While the cause is not fully understood, it is believed to involve genetic and environmental factors. Treatment may involve therapy, medication, and support to manage symptoms.

no, as of now there is no cure for TS, but there are medications to help although they are usually reserved for the more severe cases because their side effects may out way the actual tourettes itself.
No, but they sometimes occur together, and people who stutter often develop tics when trying to get the words out. See the web site for The Stuttering Foundation for information on stuttering and tourettes. They have some in the brochure section.
Fragile-x is carried on the x-gene only. Men have XY chromosones and women XX. Men pass on the x-gene to all their daughters and the y-gene to all their sons. Women pass on either of their x-genes to sons and daughters. The spouse has no effect on the transmission of the faulty gene at all. Their x and/or y genes simply get combined. So, a male Fragile-x carrier has 100% chance of passing it his daughters and 0% chance to his sons. A female carrier has 50% chance of passing it to her daughters and 50% chance to her sons.
Usually, the symptoms of touretts are abnormal gestures or movements. People with the disease are usually very jumpy, and may make abnormal sounds or movements.

My Son has tourettes and tics, but both have been very minimal in the past few years. He feels he needs something to help his ADHD so his Neurologist (World Renoun) has prescribed 18mg of Concerta. I'm confused, as the warnings specify "not to be used with patients having touretts & tics.
No. Tourette's syndrome is a neurological disorder, typically caused by an abnormally structured basal ganglia and prefrontal cortex. It may also be related to levels of noradrenalin, seratonin and dopamine in the brain. It is not a mental disorder. Evidence suggests that individuals with Tourette's without comorbid conditions have a higher-than-predicted* IQ (based on a statistical model taking into account their age, family history and background), and may be more skilled at grammer and native-language skills. No studies on mathematical skills have been performed.
You can, but you might want to reconsider enlisting. Those with ADHD are not typically well suited for military service and typically encounter difficulties. This is not the case for all. Some with ADHD do well in a very structured environment. If you are one of these, then by all means enlist. If your doctor is unaware of the ADHD then the chances are its not on record to which my advice is to keep quiet. Dont lie though if your doctor is aware as the military will check your medical records.
