Hi there. Sorry to hear this. I have some of this too. May I ask how long have you had the symptoms are they improving or deterioting? Also did any other medical procedure trigger the FND as with me? .

Hi

The menopause seems to be under appreciated in terms of how it affects our bodies. I would speak to your GP about treatments as FND is hard enough to deal with on its own. I took a good multi-vitamin to help with menopause and had acupuncture. There is lots of info out there, I also bought a book called "The Wisdom of Menopause" which was a revelation in terms of how much is going on in our bodies and suggestions on what to do...

Good luck, take care

Thanks lou its really hard coping with both & really wish meds could help but for some reason my brain doesnt take well to them i always feel very sedated or i'm going to fit off them i sleep loads but nothing interests me in away getting me down because on edge with these nervous really think they might be another underline problem but im not sure if fnd does that to the brain after taking anything trying to find out if anyone else has the same issues new to this condition & tbh not at all coping well with it!. Thank u for the advice & u also take care now!
