Hi

My thumb and hip have started to hurt to the extent that I finally went to the GP as they have started to interfere with my daily living. Never experienced these before. X-ray showed no arthritis. Is this developing another symptom of FND?

Cheers

Hi

No. I was waiting to ask my neurologist Jon Stone about this. I have just purchased a thumb splint myself. I'm probably kidding myself that it's just a strain but its got steadily worse over the months and I can feel very early feelings in my right thumb. Not painful but just a very slight tightening. Bloody hell my mum is in her 80s and doesn't have arthritis just a few aches and pains she puts down just to aging.

Cheers

Lou
