Hello Everyone! My son is 8 years old & was diagnosed with mild CP about 2 years ago. I have noticed lately that he does a lot of slight jerking of the head. I asked the pediatrician about this, and was told it could be mild tics. I wanted to know if the tics & his CP are related at all. If anyone here has tics as well as CP or have a child or maybe know someone who has both, I would love to hear from you. I appreciate any posts! Thank you!!! ;)

If the above post is confusing at all, I will explain things a little better. The pediatrician we saw isn't his normal doctor & we went in for a sinus infection. I asked the question about him jerking his head from time to time & she said she believes it could be mild tics. I didn't even think to ask if it was related to his mild CP. I don't think she even knows he has mild CP.
I hope this cleared things up for some of you who may be confused about my post. Any replies would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!! ;)
