You are not alone

  • FND is best managed by a multidisciplinary team, but access to specialists can vary.

  • Key professionals to consider:

    • Neurologist (for diagnosis and rule out other conditions)

    • Physiotherapist (for movement retraining)

    • Occupational Therapist (OT) (for daily function support)

    • Speech & Language Therapist (SLT) (for speech/swallowing issues)

    • Psychologist/Therapist (for emotional support, CBT, trauma therapy if needed)

  • Not all doctors are familiar with FND—if one dismisses you, seek a second opinion if possible.
