A lovely acceptance today from Stoat Poetry. 'If you care' is going to be my first poem published about living with FND, a condition that has completely changed my life. It's scary putting something so personal into the world, but I know this one has found the perfect home x

“Your scans are normal, so nothing is wrong.”
❌ Myth.
For people living with Functional Neurological Disorder (FND), symptoms can be very real and sometimes disabling - even when routine scans don’t show visible injury.

relapse, apparently
but it really is shonky reasoning, no one really knows what triggers FND and presumably if it was ‘needles’ then that would extend to any type of venipuncture

For me, the specialist nature of secondary healthcare can’t cope with multifaceted health problems. More research is needed but also a doctors that look at the issue holistically rather than the merry go round that typically ends in psychiatry or neurology with an fnd or mh diagnosis

my hospital network diagnosed it as FND/conversion disorder. all delays in care are on them. I made a Stanford appt with an actual CSF leak expert and within 30 seconds he was like "yeah sounds like a leak" and then... located and patched it when I finally made the 2 week trip

Hey @tomkindlon.bsky.social
Are you familiar with FND? It’s a complex disorder that’s currently not classified correctly as neurological under the SSA.
I’m working to change this. If you would help us by taking a look and sharing the petition below I would greatly appreciate it.
