Summary (2/2):
-mocking FND patients could drive them to antivax
-FND is a rule-in diagnosis based on exam findings
-brief videos online are no substitute for a neuro exam
-being #FNDaware helps patients understand the diagnosis & connect to resources
-listen to FND patients

The FND misinformation in this video is very concerning. They discuss a number of FND symptoms but wrongly believe FND means feigning. They admit they don’t know the cause of the symptoms but they are open to learning more to figure it out.

Dr. Ruhoy, please consider learning about FND ⬇️

My eyes roll back.
I’m losing control top down –
Trapped.

A passenger in a car
speeding down the highway
with no driver.
Concrete brick
on the gas pedal,
no hands on the wheel –
Trapped.

("Trapped" is a poem about my life with #FND #seizures - continued in comments)

April is FND Awareness Month! I acquired functional neurological disorder a few years ago as a result of COVID infection. I experience intermittent paralysis, muscle weakness, brain fog, tremors, and non-epileptic seizures as a result.

FND + mobility aids = empowerment. For many living with Functional Neurological Disorder, these tools aren’t defeats, they’re freedom. Use what helps you move through the world. 💙

You haven’t lost yourself.

FND didn’t take you out of the story.

It changed the angle you’re seeing it from.

Different perspective. Different pace.

Still you. Still here.

That counts.

FND, explained simply:

Your brain sends signals like
“move,” “speak,” “stand.”

With FND, the signal gets scrambled
on the way.

The body isn’t broken.
The message just doesn’t land.

It’s not imagined.
It’s neurological.
