I saw Prof. Keenan a few months ago after it was questioned by a rehab/movement doc weather all my MS symptoms (a well established diagnosis) are down to MS (I was sent back to MS neuro with it most likely being MS, but I'm glad I explored it. I guess I would never have known). He is a Psychiatrist in Melb, Aust and researching FND. He does discuss that all FND is not CD (or rather not all conversion disorder - since FND is not really used here I have noticed - is related to life events/psychology). 45min long

Hope no one minds me staying here. I still kind of feel like I can pop in. My MS neuro is happy with the "MS, move on" thing, but I have so few lesions that I feel like a square peg with level of disability outweighing many of my peers there. Gain a lot from this site.
