After having a tic, how do you know if you got lime disease from it?

Infection usually occurs if the tick was attached for 36-48 hours.  It removed before that, there is far less chance of contracting Lyme Disease.  If you have contracted it, it can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks to manifest symptoms.\n\nThe early symptoms are:\ncircular red skin rash\nFatigue or lack of energy (most common symptom) \nHeadache and stiff neck. \nFever and chills. \nMuscle and joint pain. \nSwollen lymph nodes\n\nFor more info:\nhttp://aolsvc.health.webmd.aol.com/hw/arthritis/hw77228.asp?src=AOLConditionWidget

You have an reaction to citrus that is stimulating your sympathetic nervous system.  Citrus and tomatoes are common activators of unusual allergic reactions, which can include panic, depression, mania, etc-  If you pay close attention, you may find that your mouth gets dry, your heart beats a little faster, and you feel uneasy or worried-those are also sympathetic responses.

Tetanus, or "lockjaw" isn't as common as it once was, but people do still get it from time to time.  If you cut yourself on a dirty object such as a rusty nail, you need to see a doctor for an anti-tetanus shot.  Symptoms usually appear within two weeks of the injury, and include headache and spasms or cramping of the jaw muscles.  Untreated, tetanus is usually fatal.

Yes, I have a 16-yr old male friend who has that, he has facial twitches, although there are different symptoms of Tourettes.

The biggest misconception about Tourettes is the Coprolalia (shouting obscenities).  Actually it is the rarest symptom of TS.  VERY FEW people with this disorder ever display this symptom.  So you must have two very rare cases, or someone is pulling your leg.  \n\nPeople with TS will sometimes shout or say a word.  It is not always a cuss word.  Sometimes it is needing to hear the sound of the word, or if it has a hard "c" or "t" sound, there is something in the brain that NEEDS to hear this sound.  That, I believe, is related more to OCD than Tourettes.  It is not uncommon to have Tourettes + ODC or ADHD or both.  \n\nI hope this helps. \n\nFrom the TSA web site:\n\nThe fact is that cursing, uttering obscenities, and ethnic slurs are manifested by fewer than 15% of people with TS. Too often, however, the media seize upon this symptom for its sensational effect. Because milder cases are being diagnosed, the incidence of coprolalia will probably decrease.

Since you have been out of the country you should call your primary physician and tell them your symptoms and get their adivice.  \nIt could be some kind of rash from fever.

Same thing happened to me.  I was lactose intolerant and had IBS.  You have to cleanse your system and then learn which foods are causing it.  Seriously, until you flush your system, everything you eat will cause it.

These are called "facial tics".\n\n"The cause of transient tic disorder can be physical or psychological. It may be a mild variant of Tourette's syndrome. The child may have facial tics or tics involving movement of the arms, legs, or other areas. Tics appear to get worse with emotional stress and do not occur during sleep."

These minor tics/tremors often are associated with high stress (little sleep, busy schedule, increased caffeine) and often will resolve once you are a more even keel.  \n\nIf none of the above applies to you, then you might want to go to your family physician to have a more thorough evaluation.  Not to overly concern you but neurologic disorders like MS can manifest in odd ways such as what you described...unlikely but possible.\n\nGood luck.

Tourette syndrome (TS) is named for the French doctor Georges Gilles de la Tourette, who first described the condition in 1885. It is a genetic condition, that's either inherited (passed on from parent to child) or happens during development in the womb. Doctors and scientists don't know the exact cause of TS, but some research suggests that it occurs when there's a problem with how nerves communicate in the brain. Neurotransmitters - chemicals in the brain that carry nerve signals from cell to cell - may play a role in TS. Tourette syndrome is not contagious.

Could be a magnesium or potassium deficiency sign.\nTake a calcium magnesium zinc pill 3 times a day with meals, and eat 3 servings of fruit for potassium to see if it helps.\nGood luck!

Have to see,  did you get into something?  If it does not go away go see a DR. Could be scabies could be an elergic reaction to something you got into - Try taking BENEDRIL for the itch and if it doesn't go away then see a DR.

My mother had the EXACT same symptoms.  They ran EKG and bloodwork and chest x-ray and also said nothing was wrong.  Two years later, she is being tested for Multiple Sclerosis every 6 months (it can take up to 10 years to show on catscan).  My advise would be to make sure you see a doctor and get a CATSCAN.  Also, it could be acid reflux.  My mom said it felt like a heart attack.  As strange as it sounds, acid reflux can cause these exact symptoms.  She takes prilosec for that.  But now they think it may have been related to muscle spasms caused by MS.  Be firm with doctors and don't give up.

Oh please to some of the answers you recd.\nTwitches can be caused by a habit of movement. She may have a nervous tic/twitch which is caused by misfiring of a nerve.  \nIf she had tourette's she'd do more than have a twitching mouth, and if she were on drugs she'd be more obvious.\nProbably a tic. Try not to stare.
