Ben 1 - Tics 0

Ben has been having night time tics recently which seem to be triggered as he walks past the sofa by the lounge door.  He identified tonight that it is his heel tic that triggers off the really bad tics when he walks on the carpet. so I piggy backed him upstairs (all 6 stone of him !) and managed to dump him onto his bed where he got changed  into his pj's. He then wrapped his foot in his dressing gown so it didnt rub on his quilt because the feel and the sound also triggers his tics. Complicated? yes, Tic Fee YESSSSSSS........ result.
Gives you an idea just how complex this condition is at times and an insight into what we have to do to trick the tics.  Ben 1 tics 0
