Hey just wondering if anyone is familiar with some specific symptoms Tony has had. His right eye he constantly closes shut and Also his tongue rolls around. It happens in unison. I've asked for neuro consult and also an emg scan for that side to see if it's nerves.

But if any of you know or have had it please let me know. It seems painful for him and I need some idea to better help him and explain to staff for them to look into it further.

Thanks

Hello, I have looked up the symptoms you have described and they might be medication related, causing Parkinson like effects, or it might relate to such a condition. If it is medication related there are mess that can counteract it, or the mess can be reviewed. There may be other causes tho xxx

That's for some kind of answer. I'm going to set a meeting up with his social worker and see if they can get a neuro and regular checkup to sort it out thanks for the answer.
