I have posted on here in the past about issues I was experiencing with FND diagnosis & getting my disability company to recognize the nature of my condition. I was removed from my policy last year due to not meeting criteria defined within my plans limits, as my neurologist (FND specialist) saw that I would be eligible based on the wording of there limitations. I think as this disease becomes more & more researched & shared it becomes inexcusable to include this as an exception. Well long story short- after fighting back for 6 months I finally got a reversal of the decision of my denied benefits. This message goes for anyone who needs help, just keep fighting & stay on top of every aspect you can, find doctor's who understand what your going through and can help explain your issues best. Stay well all, keep your hope up!

Thank you so much for the advice and update. I have been exhausted over lack of communication and understanding from the insurance company. I had to enlist the help of busy family members to speak for me.
Hi there,after having read your post, I totally agree, you need good GPs, good doctors and a good neurologist, plus you can be referred to rehabilitation, which does help physically but also helps you to understand the brain function and why you have FND, best of luck to everyone xx
