Hello, I have an eight year old otherwise healthy son who has suffered with increasingly frequent involuntary muscle spasms. Currently it has moved to his biceps and is in turn affecting his wrists and hands....he has elbow pain sometimes from the frequency and force of trying to control the spasms throughout the day. He has no fatigue, no balance or gait issues. He does have ADHD controlled thru a Gluten Free diet and behaviour modification. He is growth delayed, diagnosed through a wrist xray test which showed he is 18 months behind in bone growth. He is on his growth curve and has lost no weight with a healthy appetite and active lifestyle. HOW worried should I be? Right now I'm scared for him and worried that they may become worse. Thoughts, opinions?
