Can Yawning Excessively Be Tics?

Female, 24, 5'7", 115lbs

I have turretts, epilepsy (petite mal which I out grew and then myoclonic jerks) and a mild case of Aspergers. The tics began when I was 18 and epilepsy since birth. My tics are mostly in my back. Although when I forget to take my meds and restart them (only a few days of random oops) I yawn excessively but am not tired. Could this just be another tic?
