Guest guest Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 My son has started constantly murmuring 'go " or " ga " under his breath. I asked him why he is doing this and he says he doesn't realize he is doing this and his mouth feels funny. Any input here?

Guest guest Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 I did something similar for a year or so when I was about 14. Never really knew what it was, but it was about a year after I recovered from mono encephalitis. Later, in my late teens thru early twenties, I would squeak or sqeal (like I was just sooooo excited) and ballerina-leap into the air. I met a kid at the park a few weeks ago that was doing the same thing, and his mom said it was Tourette's. We chatted and compared notes, and the child was almost identical in his behaviors to me at that time. I would sometimes say " two three four " under my breath without really realizing it, either. My littlest one is currently sighing and grunting quietly when in a relaxed state, and I've been wondering if it's a little tic or something too. If his mouth 'feels funny', I'd keep an eye out for thrush or difficulty swallowing. Is he seeing Dr G? --- catherine quinn <quinn.cat1968@...> wrote: > echolalia.....stroke patients do the same > thing....my mother used to say " snow " constantly > without realizing it after she had a massive stroke > > Jerri Gann <njgann@...> wrote: My son has > started constantly murmuring 'go " or " ga " under his > breath.

Guest guest Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 Another thought- does he have post-nasal drip? --- Jerri Gann <njgann@...> wrote: > My son has started constantly murmuring 'go " or " ga " > under his breath.
