I got TD 4 years ago from anti nausea Reglan, metoclopramide aka maxalon.. You are the 1st person to understand it can happen from antimetics. Most people deny it and give to pregnant women.. my youngest two children have Tourette's Tourette's. Please continue to help us.. I couldn't begin to imagine if somebody was in mental health, then medications doing this to them. Feels so cruel
I have bipolar depression, anxiety, ocd. I was born with tourette's syndrome too. After being on Depakote for a couple years, my tics progressively got way worse!!! It was finally pinpointed that I have TD. It has made my life miserable. I do not wish this on anyone. I would go back to my normal tics any day. Has your TD been managed, or do you find it difficult? I am still looking for a positive way to manage both bipolar disorder and my TD.
@@stephensullivanii1295 thank you so much for commenting. I've just been to the neurologist and have TD with the Twist of dystonia.. originally when this first happened it was getting me down and the GP wanted to put me on antidepressants. I refused to go on them because I read PubMed information and it was not good news. I think Professionals are true idiots and uneducated when it comes to giving us drugs that make our condition worse. It should be criminal. I wouldn't wish it on anybody either. Within professional ignorance, it is wished upon us with more drugs that give us enhanced movement disorder. One of the cruelest things is that they don't listen.. I feel so grateful to have a new neurologist, who is taking every complaint seriously. He is sending me for a nerve conductor test first week of December. This will also check for spasms as well as nerve signals. I'm not really sure how it works. Gosh hanging there mate because I know how terrible it can be mentally. I speak to a psychologist once a month and it helps keep me stable and accept what's going on. I refuse to take any drugs that make me worse.. In your case that might be difficult due to the bipolar. My sister has been diagnosed with (cycloclimia?) bipolar.. she has OCD and a few other things happening but not sure she was at the diagnosed properly
Thank you for this concise explanation!

Neither costly drug worked for me. I got it taking Perphenazine for just 2 months though my Doctor claims it was coming off Geodon.
