I thought Tourette's too, though who knows. It may be a type of seizure -- which many children also grow out of.
If it is Tourette's, just thought I'd let you know that last year I lived with a 30something guy with Tourette's. He said that behavior had changed suddenly after an episode of severe fever as a child. He still has self-esteem issues related to it, but through the support of friends and a girlfriend has overcome that to win a scholarship to grad school at Carnegie Mellon. He moved off to school in August and I really miss him. :D
Good luck. I've been treated like a nut by neuros myself and just recently found relief. :D
