Rhett's (Sp?) Syndrome

Might you mean Tourettes (or Gilles de la Tourette) syndrome?

I don't know much about it apart from it being a neurological disorder
that manifests itself in childhood with numerous 'habits' or tics, both
vocal and motor.

There is no cure as far as I know, but its symptoms can be controlled to
a certain extent with neuroleptic drugs.

Hope this is of some help,

Tim.
