>From wikipedia:
"Tourette syndrome (also called Tourette's syndrome, Tourette's
disorder, Gilles de la Tourette syndrome, GTS or, more commonly,
simply Tourette's or TS) is an inherited neurological disorder with
onset in childhood, characterized by the presence of multiple physical
(motor) tics and at least one vocal (phonic) tic; these tics
characteristically wax and wane. Tourette's is defined as part of a
spectrum of tic disorders, which includes transient and chronic tics.

Tiffany:

I think all the randomness of magical spells, saying, & potions to 
come out for no reason would drive even the most patient person mad 
if they're around them frequently enough to notice that Harry's not 
acting normally.  I'm sure that at Hogwarts someone would figure it 
out eventually & would discover some sorts magical spell or potion 
that could counteract the effects of it.  I also believe that the 
verbal stuff to come out would be as creepy as the actual body 
movements or random use of magic by Harry.  I think that Harry could 
easily live a happy adult life as a Wizrd if he's careful & remembers 
his medicines if he has to take them.
