Thank you, Sherri. The information about the tics are interesting. I have read some about Tourette syndrome, since my professional has made this statement as a possibility. But, it is not enough to investigate further on his part. As you say about doing something to develop a control of it. I like Dex as well for what it does over other meds. I very much believe, as you mentioned, that it does bring out the Tourette syndrome as a background co-morbidity. I remember in elementary school, I did not know what it was at the time, but I used have to stop and hit the inside of my leg with the other one. Likewise, before that, I felt that I had to knock by head back in a kind of cracking fashion. It did not hurt. I just felt I had to do it. It built up inside me until I did it. In time, I had it under control. I haven’t had these tics all this time until I started in taking Dexedrine. I had happy that I do not have the tics I use to do. However, the teeth clenching does give me a headache more than anything. Other than that, I can easily live with it.

Thanks for your input. It has been helpful.
