Recognising and explaining functional neurological disorder

Unread post by 6-Eggs! »

It's become more evident that those who have been diagnosed with FND like myself that the supposed "unexplained" nature of this disorder is explained by psychotropic drug reactions or withdrawals that have been overlooked or ignored.

Although my doctors and neurologist agree that the drug I was taking and withdrew from was the cause of my FND, I am not entirely happy with that label as FND is seen as a psychosomatic disorder. While yes there is a psychological component to this condition which is pretty evident by how my thoughts and mood control some symptoms, the root cause is neurological malfunction caused by these commonly prescribed drugs.


The article talks about this. As always sexual function is not even mentioned but as far as I learned, FND causes SD just like PSSD and other related drug induced SD.
