Hi,

For about three weeks, my 8 almost 9 year old son has been blinking his eyes.

It started off slowly, but has increased

considerably over the past couple of days. So much so that this blinking is

occuring several times a minute.

I spoke to his psychologist and he's suggested putting him on Tanex

(Guanfacine). Checking webmd.com it says that its used for patients with high

blood pressure and that it's not FDA approved for children under 12.

So now I'm wondering if there are any other parents out there whose children are

on this medication and how its going for them. I'm also interested in hearing

from parents who have NOT put their children on meds and are using specific

behavioral tactics (we've been doing ABA since 1999.)

Any advise would be much appreciated!

Thank you,

Michele
