Got a question on FND relating to IBD. long story short my fnd symptoms started very shortly after my IBD diagnoses than being on prednisone 3 months my FND symptoms started only a month after. Has anyone else had them start after prednisone?

Irritable Bowel Disorder. I've got it too.

I had an epidural in my back where they injected prednisone. I developed FND symptoms about a week later. I don't know if there's a correlation or not. You're the first person I've found where there was a correlation between prednisone and symptoms starting. There's been a few people who have said prednisone stopped the symptoms.

I was on dexamethasone, not prednisone, when I developed my FND, but I can't say that the corticosteroid caused my FND.

IBD is an autoimmune condition but also had uveitis after it and started getting migraines than along with the FND symptoms. Came like a big package deal after years of good health.
