Tardive Dyskinesia Described

We will work under a Contingency Fee Contract
The medical condition Tardive Dyskinesia is characterized by repetitive, involuntary and purposeless movements. The specific features of the disorder may include grimacing, tongue protrusion, lip smacking, puckering and pursing of the lips, and rapid eye blinking. Often rapid movements of the extremities will occur. Impaired movements of one's fingers may also occur. For comparison, patients with Parkinson's disease have difficulty moving, while patients with Tardive Dyskinesia have difficulty not moving.

Over the years other closely related neurological disorders have been recognized as variants of tardive dyskinesia. In the extreme, the individual undergoes internal torture and can no longer sit still. Tardive tourettism is a tic disorder that can closely mimic Tourette Syndrome, sometimes to the point where the two can only be distinguished by the details of their onsets.
