Abstract
Gilles de la Tourette's syndrome (TS) is a familial disorder that is often exacerbated by stress or fatigue. Here we present a family of a TS proband that has several members with obsessive-compulsive symptoms, a bleeding disorder, and an unusual sensitivity to heat. The proband, who is affected by all of these traits, was challenged with heat or exercise in climate-controlled conditions and showed a marked increase in the frequency of tics.
