I have Tourette Syndrome, Should I still get the Covid 19 vaccination? ?

I ask this because I had to turn down a free Flu shot because an E.R. Doctor said it would make my Tourettes worse.

    THAT DECISION WILL BE UP TO YYOU>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

    TS is a disorder in which motor and vocal tics occur frequently throughout the day...TS is repetitive unwanted purposeless, jerking muscle movements.

    TS is a hereditary disorder...

    Many folks have had issues with this covid outbreak,,,,,with the masks,,,,,some say wearing the masks have made their tics much worse......along with hyperactivity, obsessions, and anxiety..

    You have a neurological disorder,,,,,, and each vaccine has different components and each can affect you in different ways.

    It may be wise to wait a bit or at least ck the issue out more  and discuss this with your health care provider to be certain.................

    if you go to the ER for a flu shot, you do not have the mental capacity to decide for yourself.  ERs are not for the flu shot or any vaccine except maybe tetanus when you are otherwise there for an injury.

    there is no contraindication for tourette for any vaccine
