I have it also, just posted on another thread about FND

Hi every one l am starting to go to a FND group next Tuesday To hopefully find out about FHD. it is held over 6 weeks but its only 1 and half hours long so l don't now how much it will have time for proper time to talk about FND. After 6 weeks that's the end.this is ony help that I have had for 15 years.

Hi @Shepp1958, this sounds really interesting! I hope you find it beneficial

I've just been diagnosed with FND too. Left sided weakness, dizziness, balance and walking problems, exhaustion and a pile of cardiac symptoms which the consultant couldn't explain. Have you been offered any support? I've had nothing except a separate cardiology appointment which I was waiting for anyway. How do you feel about your diagnosis? I'm not sure what to make of mine as it only explains half my symptoms.

you might like to have a look at a recent research paper "Functional neurological disorders: acute presentations and management"

Hello dolfrog, sorry its taken me so long to reply I've had a pretty bad week for symptoms. Thank you for your suggestion, I found the research paper very interesting and informative. I really appreciate your help.
